Multi Monitor Support

Postby Bill Lott on Tue Mar 24, 2009 4:44 pm

Wes,

Any update on adding similar code into xLobby 3 like in xLobby 2 to so we can get multi monitor support back?

I need to have my touchscreen running xlobby and the projector showing the movie. This was a HUGE feature of xLobby 2 but currently not available in the newest builds.

I know others using ATI cards have a work-around using the ATI "theater mode", but those of us with nVidia cards are out of luck and it doesn't look like nVidia is going to address it any time soon. I sense I'm not alone in this request. I love all the new bells and whistles, but would sure like the old feature back if possible.

Thanks
Bill Lott

Same boat here. See http://www.xlobby.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6545

Like you, I use nVidia cards which nolonger allow specifying which monitor to use in hardware settings.

Me too.

I have to edit the skins to use the old "Play Movie" so I can run ZoomPlayer.

Then I lose all the nice work done to show controls on the touchscreen.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't understand why this feature isn't more important - it seems to me to be the most natural way to use the product in a high-end environment. I just don't get it ....
