Hello all. We have an acrosser 1661 board that has an on-board Silicon Motion Lynx card with TV out. Is their a specific component we must include in the XPE image to "extend" windows onto multiple monitors or is their a problem with the video card

Thanks alot-

Slobodan- thanks for your past help too.
 
You must use API ChangeDisplaySettingsEx for this purpose.

Slobodan

Yes, point taken. However, on a multi-monitor setup that works correctly, the EnumDisplayDevices function shows at least two identical devices (for dual monitor output). In our XPe build, the function only shows one

btw- Analog TV support was added to the image

Dan,

I do not have "Analog TV support was added to the image".

And all ATI and NVIDIA cards that we have tested are working. What card are you using?

To attach/show two monitors you will have to make three calls on ChangeDisplaySettingsEx.
Two calls to add settings to registry. Third to activate two monitors simultaneously.

Slobodan
