Hey all. I have my XBMC machine installed in my theater. I have two video outputs hooked up. The first is HDMI to my theater projector. The resolution of the projector is 1920x1080 (1080p) and XBMC looks GREAT on it. The second monitor is a smaller touchscreen (we'll ignore the touchscreen functionaility for now) with native resolution of 1280x1024. In nvidia-settings, I have the smaller monitor set up to clone the projector display, which is set as the primary X screen. What I want to be able to do is leave the projector off if only listening to music, controlling the XBMC GUI using the smaller display. Right now, this does not work because the smaller display only shows the top left portion of the larger 1920x1080 display.
I have done some searching, and it looks like this is a problem with the nVidia drivers. Has anyone figured a workaround for this in XBMC? I know some people out there have those fancy HTPC cases with iMon touchscreens. Anyone figure out how to get this working?
Thanks.
