iPad Pro 12.9 6th gen using external monitor crashes certain VMware remote program

My iPad Pro 12.9 6th generation with M2 chip connects easily to my external portable monitor when using almost any app on the iPad. I can extend screen and move items to either the ipad or extended display. Also, my Horizon VMware operates well on the iPad but when using the extended display, the VMware crashes or shuts down after about 1 to 3 minutes of using the dual screens allowed by VMware [that VMware works well with a regular PC laptop using the same portable extended display to have both displays active while remoted into the office].


Is there some setting on the iPad I need to change? Is the problem something to do with the information transmitted by the VMware to the dual displays [iPad and extended monitor] that shuts down the VMware or is this a software issue that needs to be resolved by the VMware company. Seems strange that the extended monitor works well with the iPad for everything else but a program that has dual monitor capabilities.

It was a VMware software setting issue. I was able to resolve issue by changing the VMware connection protocol from VMware Blast with H.264 on to Blast with H.264 off. Now ipad does not crash and all works in the virtual world with dual monitors as it should.
