Rockford Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 I would like the window for media center to always open in the same place (on my tv, extended from the desktop of my main monitor). I can't get this to happen. I have the HP computer with the IR remote set up in my living room away from my computer room. So i would like the my media to come up on the second monitor when i use the remote. I tried cloning my main monitor, but it is a wide screen and that leads to a bunch of other issues. Any ideas welcomed.
bionicman Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 You want a Dual View setting so you can configure the second TV/Monitor. You haven't told us how you plan to connect to the the TV (s/video?) or what graphics card you are using? I could talk for ages about Nvidia but that would be usleess if your using ATI.
wbpluto Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 (edited) i think media center only support "copy mode",do not support "extended mode" for dual monitor.in extended mode, ehshell.exe only apear on main monitor while launching..... Edited February 8, 2006 by wbpluto
Rockford Posted February 8, 2006 Author Posted February 8, 2006 I have an ATI card. I have the TV connected through a svideo cable.
