Remote desktop

[craigw6239]

Hi all, I have a question someone might be able to help me with. I have Hoster loaded on my desktop and want to connect to it with windows remote desk top. All goes well, except I cant get the lyrics to come up on my 2nd monitor. Any one had this problem or any ideas how to fix it. Microsoft says I cant expand multiple monitors over remote desktop. Any help would be appreciated.

Im using windows 7 professional and remoting in with windows 7 premium. The reason I want this is because I have a home set up, hoster is on my desktop in another part of the house. I wanted to remote in so I could run it all from my laptop in the game room. I have all my amps and mixer wired directly in the room with the desk top. So remoting it to my laptop would help out.

Which Version of Hoster?

Maybe it can be loaded on second computer, if Hoster Full version? If you haven't already loaded it on two computers?

Are you saying that your amp & mixer are in the room with the desktop, but the speakers are in the "game room"? I have to ask why you have it set that way? And how are the speakers then connected to your amp so you get sound in the game room? I use Hoster on my laptop to play karaoke in multiple rooms in my house also, but I am confused as to your setup.

On the north end of my game room is where all my electronics are wired to the amps, mixer and computer. The game room is 40 ft long. Speakers are located on both ends of game room. I have a bar located on the south end of game room. I want to sit at the bar and operate the karoke instead of sitting in a small room built on the side of the bar. Keep in mind, the game room I built is 30 x 40. So its a ways to walk to change songs. I dont do it for the public, just friends. I have the latest version of hoster. I can install it on the laptop, but If I do that,, I have wires running to laptop. Defeats the purpose.
