Lost video from hoster to external monitor

[oncall]

I am stumped. system was working fine, I tried to play a video, double clicked on the video which was on the 2nd monitor to try to resize it(the video) and bam it's gone. Now I can't get karaoke words to even appear on 2nd screen. Not that simple or maybe.

My external or 2nd monitor is working properly because my windows desktop is extended properly. but now hoster when i open it does not open directly on my 1 monitor, rather it is minimized down below, then when i maximize it, yea it's maximum and fills the entire screen, with no way to resize it at all.

So all in all , Hoster does not open correctly and I can get no video at all to show on my external monitor. And again, my video card is working right because i can get other applications and move them over and they run fine on external monitor.

thanks for your help. I did look in hoster manual but didn't see the answer.

This is how you reset Hoster back to defaults. After you do this you will have to set up the 2nd monitor for your display and for your video display. When you double click on the video display it returns it to the primary monitor, so don't do that.

WARNING! DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! Be sure you follow this exactly. If you delete the wrong Registry Keys, Windows on your computer could be damaged, requiring it to be re-installed.

Fix: Delete Hoster's Persistence Registry Keys.

1. Left click the Start Menu and click Run.
2. Type in regedit and click OK or Open.
3. Go to the very top of the Registry Editor. It you already see the Registry Keys expanded below, skip this step and go to the next step. Click the + beside My Computer.
4. Click the + Beside HKEY_CURRENT_USER
5. Click the + beside SOFTWARE
6. Click the + beside Micro Technology Unlimited
7. Click the + beside Hoster
8. Click Default to select it. WARNING! Be VERY careful to have this exact location selected. If not and you proceed, you could damage your Windows installation, requiring it to be re-installed to fix it. BE VERY CAREFUL! With Default selected, press the Delete Key Click Yes when it asks you if you are sure.
9. Click the X in the Top Right corner to close the Registry Editor.
10. Open Hoster. It will be as if you started from scratch.
