Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/343

As I was trying multiple software kvm switch applications I noticed the input emulation on windows seems to be more sensitive vertically than horizontally with lanmouse.

Unfortunately I don't have an objective way to measure this.
The best test I could devise is to repeatedly flick my cursor 45° diagonal between two points in my input-capture screen, and do the same in the input-emulated screen. With lanmouse, I always overshoot vertically (upwards to top-right, downwards to bottom-right).

I realize this issue is probably not too helpful, but I hope it may be useful to track if more people encounter similar problem.

Setup

Input Capture: Mac, native resolution 3840x2160, logical resolution 3008x1692
Input Emulation: Windows, 2560x1440
Version: 35773dfd07

I'm pretty sure, this is not the input-emulation on the windows side but rather the capture on MacOS. I'm aware of this problem and currently trying to fix some issues on the MacOS side.
