Wrong behaviour vhen connected to projector

Post by Bob Howes » Sat Apr 21, 2018 6:48 pm

Hi Mike,

Happy Saturday evening.

I'm experiencing some strange behaviour and wonder if you might have any suggestions.

The show I'm working on has 2 video cues. As programmed they work fine on my home machine connected to a VGA monitor but on the theatre playback machine, as soon as you boot the desktop comes up on the projector and the local laptop screen is blank. Opening SCS brings the cue screen up on the projector.

If I take my home computer in all works properly. I can't see anything different on the display set up (both Windows 10). I've brought the theatre computer home and, with my VGA monitor, all works as expected. The same theatre projection has done several shows with video cues and no problems. Anyway, although this appears to be a problem between Windows and the projector I thought I'd see if you have any suggestions.

Bof

Not sure what's happening there, but have you tried setting the option to 'swap monitors 1 and 2'? See Options and Settings - General.
