The DGT board connects without trouble here to Lichess. For chess.com, I have trouble to get work flawless. It worked before they removed the live chess mode.Ponti wrote: ↑Wed Dec 06, 2023 6:50 pm Which one is the best ? Which one do you use, if any ?

I can try to create a simple video of my setup if you want.

Ok, I try to make it later tonight. I have club night at our chess club first.
Do you have it working locally, on fritz etc., or should I take it from the start with including installing the board driver from DGT?

Isn't it too small for a chessplayer? They have a board called Chessnut Pro that looks more suitable.Chessqueen wrote: ↑Thu Dec 07, 2023 5:18 pm I purchased this Chessnut EVO PRO and it is GREAT

I put up a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V1wuWMPzu8 .
If I get more time in the weekend, I can try to streamline it a bit.
If it stops some places, just ask. It could be something I didn't need to do when it was already used before.
