twinview with tv-out on geforce3 ti200

leedo · 08-18-03, 10:07 PM

Currently I am using NVTV to watch movies on my television, but the problem with this is that it will only let me mirror the displays. I want to be able to have different things on each screen.

I have tried a number of different XF86Config setups. And nearly all return this to the log when I try to have both the CRT and TV active at the same time.

Code:

(WW) NVIDIA(0): Multiple displays connected, but only one display allowed

Is it impossible to have both active at the same time? Thanks for any help.

Geforce3 cards can only handle one screen at the same time. (using some tvout tricks it can do two screens in clone mode)

To use two screens you need atleast a geforce2mx or a geforce4mx/ti or geforcefx.
