ok this sucks but it does get me 1080p60 😂the Mini's output is DVI-I, so i can do DVI-VGA adapter -> OSSC -> HDMI

i tried some other ways..basic VGA to HDMI converter: picture is way off center and squished. OSSC with default settings had the same issue, but i could fix it by tuning OSSC settings. no such option hereVGA directly into display: picture is squished, and settings on the display dont fix it. sigh

if nothing else, i imagine SwitchRes will let me do 1080p@30 digitally without hitting the pixel clock issues. which isnt great but might be the least annoying option

some results after installing the driver and testing- the "advanced driver" switch on the side of the device must be set to "on" (unsurprising but i forgot it existed)- Sound Manager, which previously showed a non-functional built-in device, now shows no devices at all- the driver package came with four ASIO drivers, one for each combination of ASIO 1.0/2.0 and 16/24 bit. these are working fine with SuperCollider 2
