I just tried the latest XBMC live and i must say that it is one of the best media solutions i tried.
I have 2 screens, one is a LCD tv in 1366x768 resolution, the other one is a projector in 1920x1080 resolution. When I booted XBMC live from cd it defaults to my tv-screen.
I guess if I tweak my /etc/X11/xorg.conf I can get it to out put on my projector (second screen)?
If this works, is it possible to make a script when XBMC boots to let me choose output. I am thinking a selection like this:
For viewing on TV press 1 (Default)
For viewing on Projector 2
Time remaining 5 … 4 … 3
The easiest solution for this script I think would be to copy a premade xorg.conf for the projector to /etc/X11/ when I choose selection 2? So is this possible, how would this script look like?
The other alternative I thought about was to have a button that closes XBMC and then copy a premade xorg.conf to /etc/X11/ and then restarts XBMC?
How would this script look like?
Are there any other solution for my problem?
