/* Audio support */
'''How fit-Headless solves the problem?'''
: fit-Headless is a small, low-cost HDMI plug that emulates a high resolution display. Once plugged, the Mac Mini / PC detects a connected display and enables the GPU. With the GPU enabled, screen-sharing / remote desktop access can work in high resolution.
=== Does fit-Headless help in running a headless Intel NUC? ===
Yes. See for example [http://www.vfrank.org/2015/04/28/running-the-intel-nuc-headless-with-vmware-esxi/ http://www.vfrank.org/2015/04/28/running-the-intel-nuc-headless-with-vmware-esxi/]<br>
fit-Headless solves a problem known as "AMT/vPro blank screen", see [http://www.tekhead.org/blog/2015/05/ http://www.tekhead.org/blog/2015/05/]
=== What resolutions Audio support ===fit-Headless GS has fit-Headless DP support audio emulation.<br>fit-Headless and fit-Headless 4K doesn't support? audio. === Supported resolutions on fit-Headless emulators ===
Under different OS (Windows, OSX and Linux) available resolutions may vary. Available resolutions depend on OS, display driver and GPU capabilities.
The below programmed EDID resolutions given for reference only (may be overridden by OS/GPU/driver):
