You made me believe that S03 was out :(

Yeh thats probably the reasoning. Its relatively simple for most users to just install via Flatpack in the GUI.
A bit fun that the "other" category is so large. Wonder what percentage Fedora is at.
Unfortunately, the solution with the Chroma Controller didn't pan out, there are some probolems with the functionality of the Controller. The controller does not boot when the system is powered on only about ~20 seconds after which is nit-picky but a bit annoying. Even worse the controller doesn't seem to respond to input from OpenRGB before resetting the controller using the Razer Plugin which is a bit of a deal-breaker.
I think I'm gonna return it, but on that note, I am a bit curious as to the solution with the Arduino Pro Micro, how complex is it to build something like that? and what are the limitations in terms of power etc?
Didnt know this, nice, thanks :)
OMG, this solution was so simple, but completely just worked. Just mirrored the main display and fixed individual refresh rates, even works when turning the extender on and off. Thanks a bunch for the inspiration! Had my head breaking over this!
Hmm, hadn't thought of just setting all the displays to mirror mode, might want to test what that does (especially since the displays are of varying resolutions and refresh rates). I suppose it could work.
I have thought of a physical switch but i haven't had any luck finding a prebuilt one and I don't much have the electronics know-how to build one.

I have a use case where I would like to play games on the TV in my living room.
For this I have purchased a HDMI KVM Extender which allows me to have an HDMI signal connected to my TV. This is working great, but the only problem is that i would like to disable the other outputs when I am not using them, mostly for ease-of-use with windows not opening on the monitors in the office while I am in the TV Room.
I have tried using kscreen-doctor with the command "kscreen-doctor output.HDMI-A-1.disable" which works, but wreaks havoc on the display configuration in KDE Plasma on my desktop.
One solution I have found is to simply pull out the display connectors that I don't need on the PC, which works as intended. Only problem is that its a bit brute force. I had hoped to find something with similar functionality but controlled from the system. IE. a script, shortcut or similar.
Asking here in hopes that someone can suggest a way to get this to work!

Great suggestion as well, didn't know about this one. Doesn't seem to be easy to get in Europe tho :/
It's a hard choice, can't seem to find the lighting node in my country. I wouldn't be shy to DIY a bit and I do have some Arduinos lying around, but I just know myself well enough that I'm not gonna get it done ...
I ended up buying the Razer Chroma mostly because of support for a massive amount of LEDs over several ports. And several other users reported that it still works well. The price tag isn't too bad either, around $40 here in Denmark.
I really cant stretch how much i appreciate your work on this project, keeps all our linux machines looking spiffy!
