Hallo i would like to ask one question about possibilities how to connect my ipad pro to my mac mini M1 ( which is hidden and connected to dummy 4K plug) I iam using RDP conecting to my work computers and it works flawless, i like that it just adjust resolution to my ipad resolution( even when connected to studio monitor) I tried to use jump desktop (via fluid protocol) and anydesk but i have black bars under and upon so its very annoying. What is best solution at this situation ? Can mac mini be RDP server for my ipad pro? thanks! I would like to use some solution which will adjust resolution for my ipad pro ( without black bars etc)
Got a tip for us?

You’ll need to set the mini to a resolution that matches (or nearly matches) your iPad aspect ratio. The “default” resolutions tend to be 16:9 and 4:3, and the iPad Pro is typically 1.43:1 to 1.45:1 (roughly 3:2) depending on exactly which model you have, so either choose a 4:3 as “close enough” with black bars or use a utility like SwitchResX.
I've always used the app screens from Edovia (with Screens Connect running on the Mac) to connect from iPad/iPhone/another Mac. https://www.edovia.com/en/
