FRAQATTAQ Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 hello everybody! i switched from a two graphics card to a single card solution in my cab. so the monitors received now a new order. Monitor 2 is the playfield, 3 the backglass and 1 the dmd my problem now is, that I can`t move my backglasses to screen 3 no matter what I do. I tried all the options from 1-5. If I choose monitor 2 in the settings, it moves to monitor number one (the one that I use for the dmd). I also can put it on monitor two. I discovered it hidden unter the playfield sometime after I closed pinball X. so my hope was, that I just can change the position with the x and y settings. but that does not work. it does not move a single dot from its positon. if i change the value to positive or negative settings. no change at all. what I can do is change the sitze. but not the position. so how do i get my back glass pictures to monitor 3?!?!? Thanks a lot in advance for your help! PinballX.ini log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Can you also attach your log.txt file as there is additional diagnostic info that may be of help to those assisting you. Also will help to "see" what you are seeing in the monitor setup screen in the OS so a screen capture attached to your reply may also be of help.

Outhere Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Can you move Your video cables around so they will pick different monitors? info https://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=33272&page=7#entry346276 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 That may help but we need his log.txt file. OS can make a big difference here (contained in the log file along with other info). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FRAQATTAQ Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 I just uploaded my log.txt file. I also will upload some further pictures to describe my problem better. sorry, it`s not possible that I change the cables my 1050ti has one hdmi (I use that one for the playfield) one DP (i use that one for the backglass monitor) and one dvi output (I use that one for the dmd monitor).

FRAQATTAQ Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 on the picture vp10marsattacks you can see that everything runs fine if i start a table. directly over vp10 or pinball x. on the picture setupxandwindows your can see that the settings are similar for screen two and three. but the backglass is hidden under the playfield (monitor 2). setting the BG to monitor 4 and 5 has no effect at all. on the picture onmon1 you can see that it works if i change the pinball x setting for the BG to monitor 1. But it just won`t go to monitor 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FRAQATTAQ Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Thanks a lot for all your suggestions and support. I solved the problem. In my desperation I bought an adapter so I can change the cables like outthere proposed. And that did the trick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Lol! That was part of my solution too! Glad you got it sorted. I am hoping the Win 10 Fall update is gentle this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
