Anyone running yatse and xbmc on same machine, with dual monitors setup, yatse on mini usb screen and xbmc on the TV?
If so, is the TV connected via dvi or vga?

My current setup is yatse on mimo usb 720s connected to laptop running xbmc.
I intend to configure an atom-ion as htpc with usb touch monitor connected directly.
I've read that with dual screen setup, when the TV connected via hdmi powered off windows 7 recognize this and changing the screen layout automatically.
Is this happened also with dvi? should i get an htpc with vga interface?

How this issue affecting the usability of yatse?
I don't mind the mini screen set as primary and tv as secondary, but i do mind xbmc running only on the TV.
I guess if yatse always on top, then if the TV is off it doesn't matter that xbmc behind yatse.
But is it possible to recognize that TV is powered on and send xbmc to the TV?
I wouldn't want to encounter this issue but if so i think an AutoIt script could solve this.

Anyone running yatse on 10.1'' screen?
I'm thinking on buying FingerVU 1016W.
http://www.soundgraph.com/fingervu1016sw-feature-en/
Can't find info on it's resolution.

Was trolling this thread .... when i saw ur comment i had to make an account to reply lol...

YES.... YES....YES ..... do the FingerVU 1016W

i currently run the htpc ad on set (FingerVU 1016W +usb wireless + dock) and this software ....... i could almost cry when i first ran it lol ... runs perfectly with this product ( the first of any software to do so )... Its almost as tho it was BUILT for this product .

the one warning i will give u tho if u have never owned a soundgraph product:

THE SOFTWARE BUNDLED WITH IT SUCKS ( this is were yatse makes me tear up )

this is very expensive equipment with great potential CRIPPLED by its software limitations .... and i mean CRIPPLED

the only thing that works well with the stock software pack ... is the onscreen remote integrated in the touchfram software, but as u can imagine that makes for a 200-$400 really technical remote .... which is fine if it could also do more well.... but stock it dose not .

yatse turns this completly around ... gives u all the HTPC functionality (and look and feel) that it lacks ... and the stock software gives u the toys u can fumble with ( web browser ,picture viewer ... ext.... ) I know longer feel like i wasted my money on this product .... after 2 weeks of trying to make it do wat i wanted it to (Easily) instead of fumbling threw this strange software suite thats dosen't quite work.

also last note: fixes a major problem between the monitor and integration with media portal (and other programs) because of its api ...

Without wasting anymore space on the topic

THANK YOU for intruducing me to the awesome software , i wouldn't have found it had i not be trolling these forums for a solution to my software issues.

Ps. Credit were credit is due : of course XBMC kicks (u know wat) but we already know that, this is why were posting to help it improve more of our daily lives lol ...

Ill post some screen shots reviews and such (not here as to not hijack the thread) to show of the power of this awesome software+hardware combination, but again dhead .... my response is YES

another note: I am, as u mentioned u wanted to , runing an atom ion based Htpc ( hdmi ) + pico itx power supply (125wat max). Both soundgraphs software and yatse run with no probs (windows 7 32bit all i tested) off 2 gigs ram, even with me remoted in the background downloading files. It will do what u want. Also about the handshaking with hdmi monitors, the good thing about the fingervu unit ur looking at is that it has a button that just puts the lcd screen to sleep but dosent break the connection to ur htpc.

Sorry for being so long winded ..... one last thing. The monitors default resolution is 1024X768 (yatse recognises and displays fine ) u will have to disable any font resizing done by windows tho,and run at 100% font size(the default windows options) as it like to mess with the program and causes incorrect resolution.
