Hello.
I'm using my Pi 4 with raspbian and have it connected to two TVs, one in my room, and one in the living room (both TVs are mounted to the same wall, opposite sides, so they're very close.) Raspbian works ok with two screens, same with emulationstation. Since I only use one screen at a time, mirroring works fine for me. I only have to change HDMI audio output when in either room.
The problem is that Kodi only works in the primary screen, and turns the other screen black. I saw that Kodi for Windows supports mirror mode (provided that both screens have the same resolution and refresh rate, which mine do,) but Kodi for Raspbian does not. Is there any way to activate it? I tried many settings both in config.txt and xrandr, to no avail. I would settle for being able to change the output screen, that would be good enough for me. Maybe with a bash or python script?
Thanks
