Issue with 2.219 and Preview Window

[dlessnau]

At one point when I was trying to fix the problem, I had the shortcuts showing on the TV and they were all over the place. But when I restarted under administrator rather than user, they went away.

I think I will try what you said about dragging the screen to the right until it shows up on the TV.

If that does not fix it, I can always use Windows XP restore again to go back to when it was working.

I wonder why I never had this problem when I upgraded before?

In any case, thanks, and I'll let you know what happens with the fix.

I have a distinct feeling you are in CLONE mode and not EXTENDED DESKTOP since you did see shortcuts, etc on the tv..
I don't see where administrator access would have any bearing on that.

Have the tv hooked up and turned on

Right click anywhere on a blank spot on your desktop

Click on PROPERTIES

Click on SETTINGS

Click on Monitor #2 to highlight it

Check the box that reads EXTEND MY WINDOWS DESKTOP ONTO THIS MONITOR

Click APPLY, then OK.

You should now be in EXTENDED DESKTOP mode and be able to click and drag
the singer's window over to the TV, size it and double click to lock in place.

Hope this gets it.

Problem Solved!

I reinstalled Hoster upgrade, turned on the TV and started Hoster.

I added a song to the playlist, and played it. I again saw two displays. One was the preview window, and now I know the other was the singer display, but it was not on the TV, only in a little window on the laptop.

I then dragged that window all over the place with no result.

Accidently, I double clicked that little window, and low and behold, it vanished and showed up on the TV, and all was fixed.

I guess the answer is "When in doubt, double click".

Thanks for all the help.

Reading the manual also is a good idea.

Glad you were able to get it fixed by Georges Help.
