I am using a display port splitter to split my screen between my external monitor and Sipeed Nano KVM. There is no option to select 3440 x 1440, and the display on the nano KVM shows back when I connect it via active DP to HDMI adapter. I've tried several adapter combos, and I still can't get it to work properly.

1920x1080 is the hard limit, the capture chip just can't go higher than this (I might be wrong).
from my research you can make it work, you'll need a "Downscaler".
I found a few devices out there, some have built in spliter and you can pick which output you want to scale down to 1080p.

That looks like the splitter Wendell showed in his video. Might have some info to help

I've tried that, but it does not output in 3440x1440 for my monitor. I tried several HDMI splitters (I can provide links if necessary) and none of them were able to output to monitors native resolution.

Here's a diagram of what I'm trying to do if it helps-

have you tried this?

DP spliter -> DP to HDMI -> HDMI Scaler -> NanoKVM
-> Monitor

the main output of the DP Spliter goes to your monitor, the secondary goes to the scaler.

Yes, but only on the DP splitter. I will order the one Wendell shows in his video, but I'm pretty sure it won't output 3440x1440 correctly to my monitor.

I just updated to 2.2.1 and it fixed the issue! I was on 2.2.0 before that.

For those interested:

I used this Monoprice DP Splitter https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074KTC3L6?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
(Monoprice 1x2 DisplayPort Splitter, 4K@60Hz, 21.6Gbps)

and this HDMI converter from Club 3D https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077JB28KM?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
(Club 3D CAC-1080 DisplayPort 1.4 to HDMI 2.0b HDR Active Adapter M/F)
