Nooborama - extended desktop

[lividvs]

Hi. I have just installed Xibo for the very first time, both the CMS and the player. I’ve been playing around with it a little and all looks great, but I can’t seem to make it display the contents on the extended desktop. Are there any novice level tutorials or getting started guides that explain how to do that? I am using a TV via HDMI, but Xibo displays only on my monitor. Please help a noob.

Perhaps this topic will help you:

Can the player stretch across multiple monitors?

Is there a specific method to get the Windows client to span across two monitors, or can two copies of the player run on one PC? I have a PC which is connected to two monitors, and I need different media output to each screen. I know many other signage software products can support multi-monitor setups, but I can’t seem to find a way to force the client to span dual screen. Is it possible to get the client app to span when using extended desktop mode in Windows 7? If not, is it possible to ru…

Thanks for your reply. My problem is that Windows identifies the TV connected to the HDMI port as 1, and my monitor connected to DVI as 2, and no resolutions alchemy seems to work for me. Both displays have the same resolution (1920x1080), if I set the origin to 0,0 the player displays on the monitor, if I set it to 1920,0 it does the same.

Ok, you can disregard this, reinstalling the client solved the problem.
