I am still playing around with settings in Hoster AND in my system trying to find a configuration that will work as I am accustomed.
Currently, I have my main monitor (the laptop monitor) "extended" to a second monitor and connecting to the second monitor through VGA converter. Those are the settings I always used on the other systems with the exception of the VGA output. i used S-video before, because it was easier and I didn't have/need a VGA converter.
I still think that possibly the problem lies with not being able to leave the "image" are under the "intermission" tab blank. i selected an image there at one point and now i only have the option to change the image source. it will not let me leave that are blank. Even if i change the radio buttons to HTML, Solid Color or Visualization i cannot remove the source in the image box.

With version 3, you had the song display and the SND (Name Display). If you did not turn on the SND to be visible, then the only thing you had on the secondary was the Song Display. When the song was over then that disappeared and you saw the desktop background.
With Version 4 there is now what is called the Intermission screen which stays on the Secondary Monitor after the song is over. If you want to see the secondary monitor the way you saw it in version 3, then go to Tools/Show Display and uncheck the box in the Intermission that Says "Always On" This will keep the Intermission from showing between songs and your desktop will be visible. That will give you what you had with Version 3. This is the only way you will get what you are asking for.
