Solving Mac+DGT latency

Sort:

Hello mates

I recently bought my DGT board.

Right now I'm using it with a emulation on Mac through windows 10.

Ok, it works great in Windows.

In Mac I notice a lot of latency. Is there a way to fix that? Just contacted DGT Support, and they suggested to uninstall end install again. It doesn't work, I suppose.

Any suggestion?

I have also experienced the latency on mac when playing on chess.com. I'm unsure what is driving that other than Livechess for Mac's communication with Chrome. It's interesting to me because when you just use livechess, there's no latency. It has to the communication between the softwares.

I have the same problem in my Mac (Catalina).

Dear, this is a common issue. Unsolved. 

I simply bought a cheap Windows tablet (< 70€) that I use only to connect to my DGT chessboard.

It works definitely better than Bootcamp or other Windows emulator on Mac. 

I asked multiple times DGT about this problem.

It seems they haven't any idea how to solve this software bug.

Sorry mate

Sorry, Ento,  in this window tablet (which one?) you can install DGT-livechees?. And then with Chrome play with your DGT eboard in chees.com,  like a regular PC.? 

Thanks!

YES! Exactly!! It works perfectly! Every kind of Windows Tablet should work properly :-)
