Hi guys,

I'm in the process of finishing up a new system. My goal was to have dual display with XBMC on the secondary HDMI display. That works well, except when my receiver (Pioneer VSX-9040THX, if it helps) changes input. What seems to happen is that Windows loses the secondary display for a little while which makes XBMC migrate to the first display.

I suspect that the Pioneer resends the EDID information. So my question is : is there a way to force Windows to ignore them? The card is an onboard Intel. I know in Linux I could easily accomplish that with an option in the xorg.conf file.


Thanks,
Georges.

Well, I tried a lot of things, but to no avail

I understand that this is not an XBMC problem, but I'm hoping someone out there has a solution!

Well, I couldn't find a solution for my problem. I have however found a workaround. If I plug the computer to the TV, it doesn't suffer from the same problem. Only problem is that now I have an optical cable form the computer to the Pioneer.

I guess it's a minor inconvenience, at least it works.
