You cannot use AIDA64 with Turzx screens, those only work with the provided software. They are not true external screens, as they do not have the HDMI connection.
Hi. a great informative video thank you but i was wondering if one could put a switch inline some where and switch between 2 small vids in the round 2.1 inch screen version? thank you for all your help, take care and ahve a great day!
Thank you for your comment, but I´m not aware of a way how to switch between different videos, also because there is no touchscreen, so it would have to be somehow tied to some values?

Thank you! The FPS is present in the "normal" version for round display, and for the beta version for the 5inch display. I haven´t tested it yet though.
Hello nice video ; D btw I have a question and I dont know if u can solve my doubt but what is the diference about the turzx screen 2.1 and the other who have the separate cables, there are differences about the quality of display or something more apart from the removable cables and the aida software? thanks in advance
You mean all those 3 screens from TurzX? They are from the same brand, just having different sizes and different shapes. There is no significant difference between having the cable connected to the display and having the cable separate. None of those screens can use AIDA64, they all use proprietary software.
I've been looking into these, but to be honest, I'm not thrilled about installing software from some janky, no name, Chinese company. I just want the screen.
You can still use them the play video, and in that case, you don´t need that software, but obviously that usage is quite limiting. Another option is to use a third-party open source python scripts, but those are currently only for the small display, not for the big one or the round one. Hopefully someone will update those scripts for the other displays as well... otherwise, the display (display panel) quality is great.
@@upir_upir my brother bought 1 of those and I am plannig to buy one after buying a 250 dollar aio (in my country). Shit's expensive , especially in context to where I live.
hello, first of all such a nice and informative video. Second, can i use this system to convert an aold tablet into a system panel without doing much tampering
Thank you for your comment, but unfortunately what you plan is not possible with this display/software. You can convert old tablet into a system panel, but you need to use a different software.
Nice video, Is there anyway you can display NZXT cam on that IPS screen?. Or do you have to use Aida-64?. I'm looking at purchasing one of these devices myself.
Unfortunately, that´s not possible. This screen will only work with the provided software (Not AIDA64). It´s not a HDMI screen, but connected via USB-C connector, so it does not act as an external screen.
Unfortunately not. All the other screens support video playback, but not the smallest 3.5" screen. That one is quite limited in many other ways, compared to the other screens.
Probably not. You still need to send some graphical data to the display, and Arduino simply does not have enough power. You can get it working with other microcontrollers, like Raspberry PI - github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python
@@upir_upir I think issue with Arduino is more lack of a USB host port, not the data rate as the serial port speed is only 115200bps. Maybe an esp32s3 or rp2040 running Micropython perhaps?
Not for those displays, you need to look for HDMI external displays, for example the ones made for Raspberry PI. Those Turzx displays do not work as external displays.
You can always try to run some online anti-virus scan. I did it, and it found nothing. You cannot be obviously 100% sure, but I don´t think it´s a security issue. If you have the smallest display, there are some community-made python script that you can use, and you don´t need to use the provided software.
Unfotunately not with the same displays. You can connect only one display of a kind - so one small, one big, and one round. Maybe they will fix this in the next version of the display..
Hi!) My screen not working, 3.5 inch:((.. Please tell me, in the device manager in the port parameters, how many bits per second, how many data bits, is there parity and what flow control?
Thanks for the review just received mine in the mail too. Do you know if you can fully rotate the displays? (0, 90, 180 ,270) for the 2.1 inch and 5 inch?
You are welcome. Yes, you can rotate all the displays. In the case of 5inch, you can rotate it by 0 or 180 degrees for both vertical and horizontall orientation. You can rotate the round one by 90° increments since the width is the same as height and there is no differentiation between vertical and horizontal layout.
Thank you for your video, you helped me so much. Well I'll plan to buy the 3,5 inch, could you please tell me, I'm so curious, what are the disadvantages of the 3.5 inch compared to the 5 inch other than size, I heard the 5 inch much better than that one. +1 sub and like from Indonesia my friend.
Thank you for your comment. The screen quality is great for the small one, but the provided software is very limited compared to the bigger versions. You cannot play the background video and creating the themes is very limited - for example you can only set one font. Try watching my other videos about the Turzx screens to get a sense of what´s available. You can also download all the software and try it on your own before buying the displays. Hope that helps!
It cannot act as a normal external display- you can only use it with a dedicated application, and that’s at least for now unfortunately only for PC. For the small display, there are some Python scripts for other OSes, but not for the bigger and the round one.
@@upir_upir Do you mean that if I run it with a Python script I can have it in the background on my Windows desktop? You can teach me? I am looking to leave as an alternative to aida64
nice video. I wonder if the world animation is included in that program. I mean did you create the animation which world turns around or it's one of the theme? I would like to but either the 2.1 inch or 5 inch but could not decide which one is better for my system. I have a NZXT 52 water cooling system but the screen goes off. RGB leds do not respond to its program. Which one is better? 2.1 or 5? Thank you
Thank you. Yes, that video is included. You can download the application and try it even without having the display. As for which one to get, both the round one and big one are very similar, it depends on which one fits your case better.
@@upir_upir Thanks for the info. I have NZXT Kraken X 52 and the round display freezes all the time. SOmetimes it does not light up and sometimes it lights up but freezes. The 2.1 round display is fine but expensive than 5 inch display. According to you which one is more usefull? I can stick the round display on nzxt pump but original size is 80 mm and the 21. has 74 mm. I can not decie which fits better. I have a large case. Which one you offer most? Thank you
@@aslanbehar2671 I like the round one more because it´s more unusual. It also includes an SD card to fit more/longer videos. Plus you can use it to also show analog clocks which I think looks great.
@@upir_upir thanks a lot . The one I found on Aliexpress is same but in black color. But I did not see any sd card slot on it. It only says that there is 128 mb internal memory. ı do not know if it is ok for playing videos. I asked the seller about the sd card
I don´t think that is related to the display, but rather your PC configuration. It seems like (some) USB ports are still on after the shutdown - that might be intentional. Perhaps use a different USB port or try to configure it to turn off? I´m sure google will know more about that.
Friend, good morning!!! I have a 3.5 display similar to yours that is connected to the PC via a USB C cable. This week I bought an Acegeek watercooler that has a display with the temperature on the pump itself, however when installing the program to work the display the 3.5 screen remains white. I checked in the root of the driver that they are the same and I think that for this reason one cannot project the image (generally the 3.5" screen). The watercooler is connected to USB directly on the motherboard (like this round video screen) What can I do? Could you help me?
can you do a video on how to customize the the 8.8" display? how much memory comes in the display and how big of an SD card should I use, I feel like 32gb is overkill for this, can I just use a 1,2, or 4 GB card? I just got the 8.8 and installed it and I am just playing around with the themes but haven't tried to customize anything yet, also the screen will not turn off when I put the PC in sleep mode, I guess it is a bug ,do you know of any fix besides using python which is not yet available for the 8.8 yet I think. some of the included themes I would just like to change the colors and maybe the video is that possible?
@@upir_upir I have just been playing with it I got one metric for the CPU Temp working on my own theme but not sure how to set the background. The thing is acting really strange with sleep though. At first the screen would stay on in sleep then it started going to sleep and waking with the PC, then I had to change the shutdown color setting for my Corsair vengeance ram in signal RGB and after I did that when I went to manually put it to sleep it would wake up again after all my RGB flashing between MB and signal RGB effects. So I tried to stop the display and then end task on turzx before putting it to sleep and now the PC will go to sleep and all the RGB goes off but now the screen stays on again. Software seems really buggy. So have you had any pro with the 8.8 staying on in sleep or shut down?
It´s not about the displays or the software, but also about how the system reports those data. It will never be 100% accurate, but I haven´t seen anything highly unusual.
So the software is ony good for these screens? I turned my old android in to a 2nd monitor for the purpose of using it as a touchscreen system monitor. I can't fund any free software to use for it though near as I can tell you have to buy AIDIA64 and that sucks.
is the software compatible with linux? (specifically mint, since that's what i'm using), was just wondering before i decide to buy one and i couldnt find an answer anywhere
The only display tha you can use with Linux is the smallest one (3.5"), with Python scripts, not with the official software. The official software only supports Windows. Hope that was helpful.
Hey. Is it possible to get data miners from this low budget software ? Usualy something that cheap and easy come at a price. Just ordered mine anyway.. Maybe its compatible with Aida64? Cheers and Thanks for the good work.
What is a "data miner"? I´m not quite sure I understand what you are asking for.. As for the other questions, it is not compatible with AIDA64. It´s still a good display though.
@@upir_upir i mean with data miner, by hiden scripts using cpu to simply mine data for profit, or just stealing the user data, like passwords and other information
Hi, can I run the round 2.1 inch screen without the software? Like I just set a certain gif or video once and it will always play it without the software. Thanks
Sure, you can do that. If you only want to play the video on loop, you don´t need to run the software. That´s true for all the screens except for the smallest one.
Hi, i wonder how safe is this Turzx software that is mandatory to run screen? Is there any risk of virus of some theft of passwords. I am oversensitive about this kind of think :)
It´s never 100% safe to run software; no matter who the developer is, there is always a risk. That said, Google Drive runs a virus check on all the files, and it seems to be safe.

Hello, I just bought a 5-inch, the page says that they upload themes continuously, but on the website there is only a link to the program to download, do you know how to add themes?
Please see my other tutorials how to create themes, but I´m worried that you only get the ones with the software, I don´t know if you can download more from the official website.
i have turzx turing display for months now , but mod is limited coz language barrier is there any place to download theme ( .turtheme ) files? i love these screens!
I believe they are adding the option to download new themes from the application itself- at least the menu option was there on the latest beta release, but it wasn’t working yet. What kind of theme are you looking for?
@@upir_upir that good to know , i just love theming my pc , currently using their ready made theme and working with it. anything will do , for now tho , anything futuristic/cyberpunky
You can use it to store video files, either for displaying it on the background of the theme, or for using the displays as a very simple video player. In that case, it does not even have to be connected to PC. As for the file system, I believe it´s mentioned in the documentation when you download the software. I have used it for the round display, but that one has the SD card already populated.
If the display photo looks the same, it´s most likely the same display and you can use the software. I know that many times, the name "Turzx" is not listed, and sometime you might even find an information that it could be used with AIDA64. I guess the translation is not always right.
The provided software only works with Windows, but you can try the unofficial python scripts and those should work with Linux too - github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python
@@upir_upir where i can download the drivers? i have win 11 all update, but on the device list i never see the screen, even if the pc make the sound when i connect it and it turn on, i really not uderstand
@@upir_upir it displays the default theme but I would like for a certain theme to come come on when I boot the computer up is there any way to do that?
I am trying to find out how to play videos on this device, but I am having a hard time (round 2.1" device). I have gotten them to work in two ways. 1. Load as a background image. This works but you hvae to select a theme, and there is no blank theme. There is the text theme but I can't seem to edit it to remove the words Input Text. It would be nice if there were some actual instructions for this software. It's buggy, poorly documented and sparse. 2. Load in the Device section. This works but you cannot rotate the video. There is an "Album Flips 180" check box but it doesn't seem to do anything. I finally found that you have to rotate the GIF 90 degrees before you load it (if you want the cable facing down), so all of them need to be rotated before being saved to the internal memory depending on the orientation of the unit.. Fantastic hardware but the software is pretty bad. Really needs some refining.
Agree about the software being quite bad, expecially compared to hardware. I wish someone would release a third party software to controll those screens, that would be great.
Those screens can only be used with the dedicated software that comes with the display. Someone created Python scripts for the smaller one, but not yet for the bigger ones. Another usage is that you can use it for playing video, in that case, you don´t need to use any software.
Do you mean the round one? I had no problem using my own images or animations. I have a second video that shows the details, perhaps it would be helpful - th-cam.com/video/o9cor5muQeU/w-d-xo.html
@@upir_upir well i managed to get my 32GB SD Card work. Turns out it auto format it to GPT. Need to manually change it MBR through the software. Now i can store larger video files.
@@firdausbhari I tried formatting through the Genius software they provided. Still unable to get the microSD to detect. Did you format to FAT32 as shown in the instructions? Thanks!
Unfortunately not, the Turzx software is only compatible with Turzx screens, not with HDMI screens. For that, you would need something like the AIDA64.
Probably no. This display has a dedicated software and is not compatible with AIDA64. There are some Python scripts for the 3.5inch version, so it should be possible there, but not for the 5inch (yet).
You can still use it to display at least the FPS number value, or perhaps use it to play video- in that case, you don’t even have to have it connected to PC..
@@upir_upir for this money, you can take a panel with an hdmi connection and it will duplicate like a regular monitor, and you can take out any information there, it turns out Turzx Turing Smart Screen will greatly limit me

Thank you for your comment, but I´m not aware of a way how to switch between different videos, also because there is no touchscreen, so it would have to be somehow tied to some values?
Hi, thanks for getting back to me, what kind of values are you on about? values in resistors on the board or in the video/program? when i get mine ill find out a bit more and let you know if i can. thank you for that information take care and have a great day!@@upir_upir
Hi sorry i forgot to ask aswell, does this produce sound? how would you get sound to link up with the video if it doesent? would it or does it go through the usb lead to a spearker etc? take care. @@upir_upir
BTW usb cable colors always match. I think it's from the USB spec.
Good to know!
Thanks for the video
I see you access the FPS data.😮
Do you use a beta version ?
Thank you! The FPS is present in the "normal" version for round display, and for the beta version for the 5inch display. I haven´t tested it yet though.
Hello, this Software looks nice... to you know which Displays are useable?
Can i use any USB-Monitor?
This software only works with Turzx screens, not any other brand.
Hello nice video ; D btw I have a question and I dont know if u can solve my doubt but what is the diference about the turzx screen 2.1 and the other who have the separate cables, there are differences about the quality of display or something more apart from the removable cables and the aida software? thanks in advance
You mean all those 3 screens from TurzX? They are from the same brand, just having different sizes and different shapes. There is no significant difference between having the cable connected to the display and having the cable separate. None of those screens can use AIDA64, they all use proprietary software.
Very nice video, Can you tell if 3.5 inch display can show game fps?
Thank you. The smaller screen is quite limited, I don’t believe it can show FPS.
I've been looking into these, but to be honest, I'm not thrilled about installing software from some janky, no name, Chinese company. I just want the screen.
You can still use them the play video, and in that case, you don´t need that software, but obviously that usage is quite limiting. Another option is to use a third-party open source python scripts, but those are currently only for the small display, not for the big one or the round one. Hopefully someone will update those scripts for the other displays as well... otherwise, the display (display panel) quality is great.
How can I use it to just display what's on the SD card? Also, would happen to know how to use the Python scripts? I tried, but it was confusing 😅
Like the bigger brand softwares are any better lmao.
Heh. All your items including underwears are made in China
What about the 8.8" one that has the SD slot does that also use turzx software
pc displays are going to be the death of me
Why?
@@upir_upir my brother bought 1 of those and I am plannig to buy one after buying a 250 dollar aio (in my country). Shit's expensive , especially in context to where I live.
hello, first of all such a nice and informative video. Second, can i use this system to convert an aold tablet into a system panel without doing much tampering
Thank you for your comment, but unfortunately what you plan is not possible with this display/software. You can convert old tablet into a system panel, but you need to use a different software.
Nice video, Is there anyway you can display NZXT cam on that IPS screen?. Or do you have to use Aida-64?. I'm looking at purchasing one of these devices myself.
Unfortunately, that´s not possible. This screen will only work with the provided software (Not AIDA64). It´s not a HDMI screen, but connected via USB-C connector, so it does not act as an external screen.
Your better of just using an old tablet with space desk software this way you can use aida 64
How can I change the network setting from MB/s to Kbit/s, please? I can't find it in the settings.
Thanks for the video, can I play videos on the 3.5 screen? Thanks
Unfortunately not. All the other screens support video playback, but not the smallest 3.5" screen. That one is quite limited in many other ways, compared to the other screens.
@@upir_upir Thank you
You are welcome!
The displays are really looking nice. I am wondering whether they could be used with Arduino?
Probably not. You still need to send some graphical data to the display, and Arduino simply does not have enough power. You can get it working with other microcontrollers, like Raspberry PI - github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python
@@upir_upir Many thanks!
@@upir_upir I think issue with Arduino is more lack of a USB host port, not the data rate as the serial port speed is only 115200bps. Maybe an esp32s3 or rp2040 running Micropython perhaps?
@@jonathanpeace3167 Well, with enough speed you can simulate anything, but Arduino is just slow for those tasks.
It can be customize to put videos ????
Yes, you can play either a GIF file or video and in that case, you don´t even have to have that connected to your PC.
Is there a way to turn off this screen when my pc turns off? ERP does not work and I love the screen just I need it off when I turn the pc off
Do you have it connected directly to the motherboard, or to the USB port?
I just want to use it as normal display, without temperature and such things, is that possible??
Not for those displays, you need to look for HDMI external displays, for example the ones made for Raspberry PI. Those Turzx displays do not work as external displays.
@ ah ok, thanks bro
Is the software a big security issue? That's probably my biggest concern.
You can always try to run some online anti-virus scan. I did it, and it found nothing. You cannot be obviously 100% sure, but I don´t think it´s a security issue. If you have the smallest display, there are some community-made python script that you can use, and you don´t need to use the provided software.
Very useful....cheers.
Thank you! :)
you gave me an idea... what if I use 2 of the same display.. will it work?
Unfotunately not with the same displays. You can connect only one display of a kind - so one small, one big, and one round. Maybe they will fix this in the next version of the display..
So these don’t work with just hdmi video pass through? Like a regular monitor..?
That´s correct, there is no HDMI port for those screens, you can only use them with the dedicated software.
Can you use the round display on a raspberr Pi 4?
Not this one, this could only be used with the dedicated software. But there are many other round screens for RPI.
Hi!) My screen not working, 3.5 inch:((.. Please tell me, in the device manager in the port parameters, how many bits per second, how many data bits, is there parity and what flow control?
I´m sorry to hear that, I have always kept the default settings, I would probably try to remove the device driver and install it again.
How do you make the time to not show 24 hour format? That's the ONLY thing I don't like about mine.
There is unfortunately probably not such an option. I wish someone would create a 3rd party application for those displays.
Я тебя люблю чувак! Ты и твои идеи это круто из за тебя появилась тяга к электронике! I love you and what you do!)
Thank you for your comment, even when I had to use Google translate. Good luck with your projects!
it was great ❤
Thank you!
I wonder how the longevity of those screens is..I read quite often that they stop working after a few months..Anyone any long term usage opinion?^^
I have them for a year and they are still running fine.
Thanks for the review just received mine in the mail too. Do you know if you can fully rotate the displays? (0, 90, 180 ,270) for the 2.1 inch and 5 inch?
You are welcome. Yes, you can rotate all the displays. In the case of 5inch, you can rotate it by 0 or 180 degrees for both vertical and horizontall orientation. You can rotate the round one by 90° increments since the width is the same as height and there is no differentiation between vertical and horizontal layout.
Thank you for your video, you helped me so much. Well I'll plan to buy the 3,5 inch, could you please tell me, I'm so curious, what are the disadvantages of the 3.5 inch compared to the 5 inch other than size, I heard the 5 inch much better than that one. +1 sub and like from Indonesia my friend.
Thank you for your comment. The screen quality is great for the small one, but the provided software is very limited compared to the bigger versions. You cannot play the background video and creating the themes is very limited - for example you can only set one font. Try watching my other videos about the Turzx screens to get a sense of what´s available. You can also download all the software and try it on your own before buying the displays. Hope that helps!
Which Display do you recommend for AIDA64?
Any display should do the trick. Surely I would look for either IPS or OLED display, but the size and dimensions depends on your needs.
Is the 3.5 inch capable of putting video in the background? If yes, could you make a video teaching this? pls
Unfortunately not, the smallest display cannot play video, only the bigger one and the round one.
Great i need this monitor! Just want to ask are these support to display for windows/MacOS, i mean can it work like an normal PC monitor? Thank you.
It cannot act as a normal external display- you can only use it with a dedicated application, and that’s at least for now unfortunately only for PC. For the small display, there are some Python scripts for other OSes, but not for the bigger and the round one.
@@upir_upir Do you mean that if I run it with a Python script I can have it in the background on my Windows desktop? You can teach me? I am looking to leave as an alternative to aida64
@@33pl No. The Python script is just a replacement for the provided software. It will still not act as an external screen.
nice video. I wonder if the world animation is included in that program. I mean did you create the animation which world turns around or it's one of the theme? I would like to but either the 2.1 inch or 5 inch but could not decide which one is better for my system. I have a NZXT 52 water cooling system but the screen goes off. RGB leds do not respond to its program. Which one is better? 2.1 or 5? Thank you
Thank you. Yes, that video is included. You can download the application and try it even without having the display. As for which one to get, both the round one and big one are very similar, it depends on which one fits your case better.
@@upir_upir Thanks for the info. I have NZXT Kraken X 52 and the round display freezes all the time. SOmetimes it does not light up and sometimes it lights up but freezes. The 2.1 round display is fine but expensive than 5 inch display. According to you which one is more usefull? I can stick the round display on nzxt pump but original size is 80 mm and the 21. has 74 mm. I can not decie which fits better. I have a large case. Which one you offer most? Thank you
@@upir_upir I can also stick the 5 inch display on the pump near ram slots and it will fit fine as well.
@@aslanbehar2671 I like the round one more because it´s more unusual. It also includes an SD card to fit more/longer videos. Plus you can use it to also show analog clocks which I think looks great.
@@upir_upir thanks a lot . The one I found on Aliexpress is same but in black color. But I did not see any sd card slot on it. It only says that there is 128 mb internal memory. ı do not know if it is ok for playing videos. I asked the seller about the sd card
can it be used with rainmeter perhaps ?
Unfortunately not. This display can only be used with a custom software.
i cant open both programs together for 5inch and 2.1 inch, 5 is working but wont open software for 2.1
Are you running both of them in the admin mode? I.e. right click > run as administrator? I can run all of them at the same time without any problems.
Yes i run them in admin mode, does a screen need to be pluged in to work on software
There is a way to let them turn off correctly after my pc shutdown? Because somethimes they are still on, but I dont want to enable deep sleep.
I don´t think that is related to the display, but rather your PC configuration. It seems like (some) USB ports are still on after the shutdown - that might be intentional. Perhaps use a different USB port or try to configure it to turn off? I´m sure google will know more about that.
So i have the round 2.1 inch and i have a gif set to launch on boot it does that then goes back to me fefault thing any idea why it dosent rember it
I´m sorry, it´s hard to tell what´s wrong. Could you ask in the official Turzx forum?
I have an 8.8 screen and it works on HDMI. Can I operate it with this program?
Not if that´s the HDMI screen. You need to have the 8.8 Turzx screen, that one only has the USB-C connection.
Friend, good morning!!! I have a 3.5 display similar to yours that is connected to the PC via a USB C cable. This week I bought an Acegeek watercooler that has a display with the temperature on the pump itself, however when installing the program to work the display the 3.5 screen remains white. I checked in the root of the driver that they are the same and I think that for this reason one cannot project the image (generally the 3.5" screen). The watercooler is connected to USB directly on the motherboard (like this round video screen) What can I do? Could you help me?
Can you try running those python scripts instead of the provided application? That might help.
can you do a video on how to customize the the 8.8" display?
how much memory comes in the display and how big of an SD card should I use, I feel like 32gb is overkill for this, can I just use a 1,2, or 4 GB card?
I just got the 8.8 and installed it and I am just playing around with the themes but haven't tried to customize anything yet, also the screen will not turn off when I put the PC in sleep mode, I guess it is a bug ,do you know of any fix besides using python which is not yet available for the 8.8 yet I think.
some of the included themes I would just like to change the colors and maybe the video is that possible?
Yep, I do have that 8.8" display for a while, I might as well record a video. Let me see what´s possible.
@@upir_upir great thank you !
You are welcome!
@@upir_upir I have just been playing with it
I got one metric for the CPU Temp working on my own theme but not sure how to set the background.
The thing is acting really strange with sleep though.
At first the screen would stay on in sleep then it started going to sleep and waking with the PC, then I had to change the shutdown color setting for my Corsair vengeance ram in signal RGB and after I did that when I went to manually put it to sleep it would wake up again after all my RGB flashing between MB and signal RGB effects.
So I tried to stop the display and then end task on turzx before putting it to sleep and now the PC will go to sleep and all the RGB goes off but now the screen stays on again.
Software seems really buggy.
So have you had any pro with the 8.8 staying on in sleep or shut down?
did you test if these displays are displaying accurate info because i saw many people complaining about that
It´s not about the displays or the software, but also about how the system reports those data. It will never be 100% accurate, but I haven´t seen anything highly unusual.
So the software is ony good for these screens? I turned my old android in to a 2nd monitor for the purpose of using it as a touchscreen system monitor. I can't fund any free software to use for it though near as I can tell you have to buy AIDIA64 and that sucks.
That’s correct, you can use the software only with this particular screen. For external monitor, you need to use Aida64 or some other application.
is the software compatible with linux? (specifically mint, since that's what i'm using), was just wondering before i decide to buy one and i couldnt find an answer anywhere
The only display tha you can use with Linux is the smallest one (3.5"), with Python scripts, not with the official software. The official software only supports Windows. Hope that was helpful.
i see, thank you
@duskthesnep your are welcome!
@@upir_upir do you have a link to python scripts - i think it might be better to run these than the packaged software for security reasons - thanks

Hi, can I run the round 2.1 inch screen without the software? Like I just set a certain gif or video once and it will always play it without the software.
Thanks
Sure, you can do that. If you only want to play the video on loop, you don´t need to run the software. That´s true for all the screens except for the smallest one.
Hi, i wonder how safe is this Turzx software that is mandatory to run screen? Is there any risk of virus of some theft of passwords. I am oversensitive about this kind of think :)
It´s never 100% safe to run software; no matter who the developer is, there is always a risk. That said, Google Drive runs a virus check on all the files, and it seems to be safe.
how do you change the time format on the 3.5 screen
I’m not quite sure if you can do that. The smallest screen is very limited.
Hi bro, how uninstall Turzx Turing Smart Screen? (version this video)
The Windows "Add or remove programs" should do the trick.

Hello, I just bought a 5-inch, the page says that they upload themes continuously, but on the website there is only a link to the program to download, do you know how to add themes?

can i use the software on android tablet connected to pc?
Probably not. This software only works on Windows.
i have turzx turing display for months now , but mod is limited coz language barrier
is there any place to download theme ( .turtheme ) files?
i love these screens!
I believe they are adding the option to download new themes from the application itself- at least the menu option was there on the latest beta release, but it wasn’t working yet. What kind of theme are you looking for?
@@upir_upir that good to know , i just love theming my pc , currently using their ready made theme and working with it. anything will do , for now tho , anything futuristic/cyberpunky
what is the flash drive for? and what file system should be there?
You can use it to store video files, either for displaying it on the background of the theme, or for using the displays as a very simple video player. In that case, it does not even have to be connected to PC. As for the file system, I believe it´s mentioned in the documentation when you download the software. I have used it for the round display, but that one has the SD card already populated.
Does the TURZX app work with any screen or it has to be a specific screen ? There is so many on amazon they all look the same will any work ?
If the display photo looks the same, it´s most likely the same display and you can use the software. I know that many times, the name "Turzx" is not listed, and sometime you might even find an information that it could be used with AIDA64. I guess the translation is not always right.
Will this work with Linux? It’s can be nice addition for my DIY Linux NAS

And a certain video
I am trying to find out how to play videos on this device, but I am having a hard time (round 2.1" device).
I have gotten them to work in two ways.
1. Load as a background image. This works but you hvae to select a theme, and there is no blank theme. There is the text theme but I can't seem to edit it to remove the words Input Text. It would be nice if there were some actual instructions for this software. It's buggy, poorly documented and sparse.
2. Load in the Device section. This works but you cannot rotate the video. There is an "Album Flips 180" check box but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I finally found that you have to rotate the GIF 90 degrees before you load it (if you want the cable facing down), so all of them need to be rotated before being saved to the internal memory depending on the orientation of the unit..
Fantastic hardware but the software is pretty bad. Really needs some refining.
Agree about the software being quite bad, expecially compared to hardware. I wish someone would release a third party software to controll those screens, that would be great.
@@upir_upir I wonder if it woild work with aida64?
I can use it as a second screen, or with Wallpaper Engine or AIDA64?
Those screens can only be used with the dedicated software that comes with the display. Someone created Python scripts for the smaller one, but not yet for the bigger ones. Another usage is that you can use it for playing video, in that case, you don´t need to use any software.
Thing is, it's only being use by they monitor. Can't connect by your own phone

Yes, the app should be running all the time. The only exception is when you only want to play video.
Can I edit and add new themes to it? Or only use the ones available?
You can edit the provided ones, create new ones, download new ones. I believe at some point, there should be a "markerplace" where you can even buy new themes? I have seen some unused buttons in the software for that.
Whats the CPU usage like? i know alot of people have had issues with high usage.
Not much. The video is handled on the display, so it’s just updating the graphics once in a second. I can measure it next time.
