We created [our very own MJPG video server](https://github.com/pikvm/ustreamer) written in C with multi-threading support and GPU video encoding - the fastest streaming solution available to provide the best video quality for Pi-KVM. We also tested a lot of hardware configurations so that you can be sure devices you assemble will work reliably.

* If you want to capture VGA from your server instead of HDMI, buy the [VGA-to-HDMI converter](https://aliexpress.com/item/4000553298530.html).
* Pi-KVM can be powered using PoE, but it is not recommend to use the official PoE HAT: it is unreliable and [not compatible with the HDMI bridge](https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm/issues/6). Use any other PoE hat without an I2C fan controller.
* **Don't use random relay modules or random optocouplers!** Some relays or optocouplers may not be sensitive enough for the Raspberry Pi, some others may be low-level controlled. Either use relays that are activated by a high logic level, or follow the design provided and buy an OMRON. See details [here](https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm/issues/13).

* A similar problem can be observed on devices with UEFI: the keyboard works fine, but the mouse does not work. This situation occurs when UEFI does not support absolute mouse mode, which prefers to use Pi-KVM. To solve this problem, [you can enable relative mouse mode](pages/mouse.md).
* To use Pi-KVM with Apple UEFI, use the [Arduino HID](pages/arduino_hid.md) even with **v2**. Apple UEFI wants the most blunt keyboard possible.
Our future [v3 platform](#the-future-v3-platform-work-in-progress) will contain an optional HID module for such cases, so you won't have to build anything yourself.
**Most of these problems are already in the process of being solved. By the time of the release of Pi-KVM v3 HAT, the Apple keyboard will already work without Arduino!**
