I've got a plain ole DH setup, XP independent res, and can only get overlay on the primary. How do I get rid of the "features", the modes available to me all have "features"

That's the problem I was having, Ant. The overlay wasn't working at all on the secondary head. It wasn't on the 'features' monitor at all. Could it be because I had the second head plugged into the number 1 on the splitter cable? I just changed it to add my TV to the mix (which apparently it kills the overlay there too)

OK...here it is.

TH desktop = blit on all 3 heads by disabling the overlay switch.
DH stretched + TV = overlay on primary with dvdmax.
DH stretched + TV = overlay on both by disabling the overlay switch.
DH independant + TV = overlay on primary with dvdmax.
DH independant + TV = overlay on both by disabling the overlay switch.

this is really odd ...

I've got mine working, did an uninstall and complete reinstall, guess I had a bit of flotsom floating around in there somewhere

Yes, it works as I outlined it.

**iampedro** · 12 December 2002, 05:17

But it dosent' work for WinTV, I mean you can't watch TV on the second displaymonitor correct or even the third monitor?

"DH independant + TV = overlay on both by disabling the overlay switch."

Makes me wonder what is the purpose of a TV here anymore? Can you still use it for clone/zoom things or what?

**iampedro** · 12 December 2002, 10:53

But it won't work on 3 displays The stretch version of the desktop?

**Kruzin** · 12 December 2002, 14:13

It will if you disable the overlay switch.
This will give you a software overlay that works on all 3 displays.

I personally am puzzled as well

What good is a TV without the ability to watch movies on?
