[QUOTE="Skar, post: 836463, member: 80567"] Hello everyone, I hope i can get some information on the following Issue. When we watch TV or Series we usually use the Plasma-TV. But sometimes when we want to watch Movies we like to use the Beamer. Both are connected through HDMI. Since each Graphic Card has just one HDMI out i had to activate the onboard card (ATI Radeon HD 4250) in addition to the PCIe Card. The Problem is, that i cant just duplicate the Desktop, because that only works with 1 Graphic card using 2 outputs on the Same card. Before that, i tried a HDMI Splitter, which didnt work at all. The TV still got the normal picture, while on the Beamer i got nothing from the Moment Windows started. DOS showed Splitted/Duplicated as intended... So the Question is, is there any way to switch between Monitors from inside Mediaportal? Or any other way to get a video on both screens?
