[QUOTE="neelex, post: 535860, member: 89691"] Hi, I'm searching for such a solution, too. The "Touchscreen LCD display Plugin" mentioned above works fine for me (7" TFT as second monitor). I must say, till now I have only tried to use the information screen (not the touch function) as I have a MCE remote. The intention is to have a small display with which you can control Mediaportal. I don't want to start the big 42" LCD for every music track change. Even if the "Touchscreen LCD display Plugin" works fine, [B]it takes 60-70% CPU utilization on a idle mediaportal home screen[/B] (AMD 4650e) :eek: With the plugin disabled, it takes about 10%. I'm not sure if I want to have a minimum of 60% CPU utilization every time I use Mediaportal (I use it very often :D) Really great plugin, but the CPU utilization is a cruel. What do you think, is it a bug or a unavoidable result of such a plugin? Unfortunately the plugin is no longer in development. Is there any alternative, that can view a 2 lines info on a second screen like the minidisplay does on a VFD? In general, is it a heavy project to put 2 info lines on a second (small) monitor? Is it difficult to access and control a second display with a MP plugin? Unfortunately I'm not familiar with coding, so please don't blame me for silly questions ;) Cheers Neelex [/QUOTE]
