Dual Screen support

Asked by Jason Foster

Related to https://answers.launchpad.net/xibo/+question/63218 and https://answers.launchpad.net/xibo/+question/194847

I am working on getting two TVs both running at 1920x1080 to display separate content using one computer. This computer is running the xibo client and has both displays plugged in through HDMI. I have setup a virtual desktop that should be running 3620x1080 and I have set the client to display at this resolution. The problem lies on the server side. I need to setup a resolution that will cover this.

I was just wondering if anyone has had success with this yet or if this is something that will get implemented shortly. I would rather not use 2 separate computers if at all possible.

Thank you,

Jason

Hi,

go to:

-> management -> resolutions -> Add resolution

Resolution: YOUR Resolution Name
Width: 3620
Height: 1080

SAVE

go to a Layout:

Design -> Background -> Resolution -> 3620x1080

This didn't work?

Month ago I have tried this with 4 Monitors...

cu, Joerg

Joerg,

I did not notice that as an option and now this is working. I set my client to 3840x1080 and I set the resolution on the server side as 3840x1080 and it is working perfect. Great job!

Have a wonderful day.

Jason
