Re: Using two monitors with Hoster Light

Did you change your user name ?
Anyway, most laptops with widows 7 have an HD high definition connector which in your case would probably be the easiest way providing you are connecting to an HD capable TV. Connect the HD cable to both TV & computer and turn TV on then turn on your computer last.
select High definition from your TV source control. Now right click on a blank area of the computer screen (Not on an Icon) and a window should open with a selection, choose "screen resolution".
If you have done every thing right you should see monitors 1 & 2, if you press identify you should get a big 1 show on your computer monitor & 2 on the external TV just for a short time. I have attached a file showing this with the settings shown as well. If all is well just press the OK button and you are ready to start your Hoster Program.
When you see the singers screen place your screen pointer in the window at the same time left click and hold, then still holding the button down drag the screen to your right and you should see the outline of it on your second monitor. Once it is positioned correctly right click again on a corner and you should be able to stretch it to fill the screen.

Now if you don't have the HD facilities you either connect a VGA cable to a monitor or TV with VGA input or you will have to invest in a VGA to Video converter of which there are various types, so if you choose this method come back here for advise on your options. Whichever you choose the setting up is much the same as above.

Roy.
