Hi

I've installed XBMC on my personal computer (windows 7) and i've a dual screen configuration : My TV on VGA and my monitor on HDMI. When TV and monitor are turn on, if i start xbmc it start on the TV because i've specified in configuration that it must use screen #2. If i start XBMC when my monitor is turn off XBMC start on the TV. But in this case, if i start my monitor after, XBMC change to my monitor and if i go to settings i can't see the second monitor. I must stop the moovie, close XBMC, restart it and continue my moovie.

There is no way to force XBMC to detect dynamicly the event of "add second monitor" and check default configuration to use the second monitor if i've specified it?

Thanks.

ps : Please excuse my english, i'm french :/
I don't see a bug here unless you call HDCP a bug (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandw...Protection) The software is now called Kodi and has been for a few years now. You could set-up a batch file to close down and restart, or just keep both panels up prior to a Kodi start. Your english is fine, just don't swear Smile
