DualHead Hot Keys Help

[Debbie]

Hi All,

Is it possible to set a hot key to put me in and out of DualHead Clone without having to go via Display Properties > Settings .....

Yes.
Set up the display(s) as you want them for one instance, and add that setup as a "DeskTop Scheme" from the quickdesk icon in the systray.
Repeat as many times as needed for as many schemes you want to set up.
Once the schemes are set up, assign them hotkeys through quickdesk.

Sure I do it all the time. Thing to do is to

save your current "default" desktop by clicking on the Matrox Quickstart icon in your systray, Desktop Schemes>Add. Give it a name of course.

Exit, Display Properties and configure it for Dualhead Clone, the save it and name it.

Then Open up the hotkey settings and they are all the way at the bottom.

Make sure that you have the icon in your systray or hotkeys don't work and make sure that you have apply settings without restarting checked in Display settings. I think that you can have something like 11 schemes or something.

Will this work for the "Advanced" options in DVDmax?

It seems for best DV and best mpeg1 the settings are incompatable. A single key switch would be very cool.

I'm not at a G450 system now or I'd try.
