Multiple monitor outs

Hi all,
I might be missing something here but I’ll ask anyway!
I have 3 monitor feeds from my PC running SCS. Let’s say Out1 for SCS software, Out2 for my Digital script and Out3 for a projector. I seem to have issues every time I start up my pc and SCS decides to route the projector feed to Out2. I have to physically swap around outputs so Out2 becomes projector and Out3 script. Then next day I will start up SCS and it will use Out3 as projector again which I swapped physically to my script.

I know you can choose which monitor sends to use for the projector however when I say output to monitor 3, monitor 2 is blanked too, even though no video is required to monitor 2.

I hope this makes sense and that someone can point me in the right direction.

Regards

Mark

This is an issue we hope to fix soon.

The issue of SCS sometimes selecting the wrong screen seems to be embedded somewhere in Windows. I've encountered the same issue and have found that the screen settings returned by certain Windows API functions do not necessarily match those shown in Windows Display Settings. If I can find a solution I'll implement it!
