Dual monitor output for Z68MA-ED55 (B3) with IGP ?

Does Z68MA-ED55 (B3) board support dual or multi monitor output with IGP aka built-in intel HD 2000/3000 ( not with discrete graphic card ) like the  H67 boards ?

By right it should, however, to confirm the answer, it is best to >>contact MSI<<.

    miniDisplay to HDMI : How to turn off the Dual Monitor output when the adapter is attached and the TV is off ? And will keeping the adapter connected even if it is not in use, cause damage to the adapter ?

    I have my external monitor/tv setup of the left. If I leave the adapter attached with the TV off, I am still able to cross the border/boundry of my MBP screen ! As instead of detecting a TV, the MBP is detecting the adapter as a screen. I do not want to damage my thunderbolt/miniDisplay port by plugging and unpluggin the unit each and every time.

  • Need help with dual monitor setup for KDE 3.5.5.

    Using this xorg.conf file, only my NEC LCD analog monitor could display KDE while the Samsung digital can't.
    Any suggestions?   

    Thanks for your help guys, I'm halfway there.
    The second monitor shows the KDE desktop, but it isn't exactly what I expected.  Right now, both monitors display at 1024x768 (each) or 2048x768 (total).  The larger monitor stretches and distorts the display of 1024x768 to its natural resolution at 1440x900 and it isn't what I wanted.  Other than that, the dual desktop setup behaves what I expected to.

  • Dual Monitor setup for Mac Mini???

    I just bought a VGA Y-cable and split my monitor signal to two monitors. Unfortunatley the same thing is displayed on both screens where as I was looking for an extension to my desktop.
    I found this http://www.national-tech.com/catalog/dvisplitter.htm (the top one for $ 146)
    I was wondering if I split the signal with a dvi splitter rather than a vga splitter if i could have a dual monitor setup with more screen space...

    You should be able to use a USB display adapter:

  • USEING DUAL MONITORS ON MSI DKA790 GX PLATINUM WITH INTERGRATED VIDEO

    I know that you can use VGA + dvi-d port or vga + hdmi port together.But manual shows note : dvi-d connector does not support d-sub to dvi-d converter and i haven't seen a hdmi to vga converter that is not 200 Plus Dollars. Is There An easy way to get dual monitor support on the cheap? Or is It Just Easier to add another video card?

    Your going to want to just buy a video card. If you are some one who is a game you will want to go with a higher end card for instance I will use the Nvidia 8000 series. The 8200 and 8400 are lower end processors for that card while the more expenseive 8600 and 8800 are the higher end cards. Make sure they support dual out put. Make sure you have a good power supply for any of the high end cards. Some of there demands can exceed 200 watts. Most dual monitor cards will have the two DVI poets and one S-video. they will also come with adapters for HDMI and component id they support it.  I do a dual monitor display and love it. way better than the splitters. anyways hope this helps.

  • Dual monitor recommendation for 2 floors? [SOLVED]

    I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to go about setting up X so that I can toggle it between floors of my house.  I currently have the computer on the main floor, hooked up to a monitor and keyboard there. 
    What I would like to do is also connect the computer to a TV and wireless keys in the basement (AKA play games on a giant screen ).  I want to avoid making the screen span across the monitors would be typical if 2 monitors sat side-by-side, because if I accidentally toss a window on the wrong screen, i have to go to the other floor to figure out where it is and put it on the other screen.  And that way any games or whatever would not be half upstairs and half downstairs.
    I use the nvidia driver (so maybe if there is a way that twinview can do this...?).  First floor monitor is 4:3.  TV in basement is widescreen.  My plan ideally would be to make a script that would call xrandr (or something like that) to toggle between floors. That way I can just press a button on the keyboard to switch location.
    My thought is that since I can only be on one floor at a time, it would turn off one screen and put everything on the other screen when I toggle, rather than doing some sort of extending across 2 screens.  Kinda like if you take a laptop and hook it to a docking station and it shuts off the laptop's screen and uses a bigger monitor instead of the laptop's screen.  That way I can start something on the first floor, then switch and continue it in the basement.
    Any thoughts on the best way to go about this?  This is my first time playing with multi-monitor setups (although I'm looking more for a toggle between them that changes the resolution to match the different aspect ratio of the screens, rather than extending the monitor across 2 screens). 
    Oh, and to complicate things, the monitor (which is on the first floor) has bad EDID, so I had to put in some modelines and tell it to ignore the EDID - this works fine on its current single-monitor setup.
    Thanks in advance!

    OK   I am now posting this using a 55-inch tv as my monitor
    I did decide to go with ngoonee's twinview method rather than setting it up for independent consoles, for reasons mentioned earlier.  Getting rid of "Clone" helped and my next step is to put together a quick script to toggle when i press the magic button on the keyboard.
    One minor note is Conky doesn't reseat itself automatically with the screen change, so I will just kill and restart it in my toggle script.
    One major note is that setting it off of "Clone" was not enough to stop the panning behavior when I first bring up X.  This is what was happening:
    X starts
    X sees that the TV has a big resolution, so it decides to make a big virtual area to match.
    X sets the metamode (as it should) to initially use the 1280x1024,NULL mode (just using the regular monitor, not the tv).
    KDM starts up at 1280x1024
    The screen now pans to a bunch of garbage outside of that area when i move the mouse towards the edge.  This is because of that giant virtual area, even though KDM is in the smaller 1280x1024 area.
    To fix this, I needed to make xrandr set the resolution before kdm starts.  So I added "xrandr -s 0" to the file /usr/share/config/kdm/Xsetup
    This causes X to execute xrandr prior to KDM startup.  This fixes it from panning around a giant virtual area.
    Thanks for all the help and suggestions - I think I have a better understanding of this now

  • How to Create and adjust masks with SDI output or Dual monitor output activated?

    Hi all Speedgrade community.
    For me one of the biggest problems I constantly encounter is managing masks within speed grade.
    The tools are great, but if your using and external reference monitor for grading there is no way you can manage
    masks and see what your doing on that "external" screen. Is there a way of activating dual screen or ddi output and keeping
    the viewer active in the GUI?
    When I know I'm going to be managing a lot of fine tuning grading, I usually always switch to Scratch or Resolve, and that breaks my Adobe CC round tripping workflow

    Thanks for your response.
    Is it just me, or does the pointer, when sent over to the SDI output, not respond as well

  • Dual monitor connection for ATI Radeon 4350

    I have HP Pavilion Elite e9300z PC with 512MB ATI Radeon HD 4350 [DVI, HDMI, VGA adaptor]... I want to connect a 2nd monitor to video card. I think my current monitor is HDMI, so for the other (DVI) is it dual-link? In other words, should I get a dual-link DVI cable or a regular DVI-D cable? Thanks.

    Regular DVI-D cable shoould work, your monitor must have a DVI-D and not a DVI-I port...

  • HOW TO: HDMI Audio Output for Zotac Media Box with nVidia ION :)

    I've been fighting with my recently purchased Zotac mini-PC for about 2 months now trying to get the HDMI audio output to work. I tried extensive modifications of /etc/asound.conf, different versions of ALSA, and even OSS without success. I've finally succeeded using ALSA and GNOME.
    First I installed ALSA according to the Arch wiki.
    Next I verified that ALSA detected my sound card(s):
    cat /proc/asound/cards
    0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
    HDA Intel at 0xfe9fc000 irq 28
    1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
    HDA NVidia at 0xfcf7c000 irq 18
    Next I checked which sound card had the HDMI jack:
    aplay -l
    **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
    card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC888 Analog [ALC888 Analog]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC888 Digital [ALC888 Digital]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 7: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 8: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    card 1: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 9: NVIDIA HDMI [NVIDIA HDMI]
    Subdevices: 1/1
    Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
    From these two commands, I concluded that I have 2 sound cards (important later on) and that my HDMI sound card was card 1 (NVidia) and that it had 4 possible devices (3,7,8, and 9). To determine which device must be used, I ran the following command for each device (for example, to test card X and device Y, use' plughw:X,Y'):
    aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D plughw:1,7
    Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono
    I tried each device and got the best sound from device 7 (8 and 9 also worked, device 3 gave static...).
    Now, since I had 2 sound cards, I needed to change the default ALSA device. My default ALSA device was card 0 (the Intel card), which wasn't plugged in, so I needed to change the default card to be card 1 (the HDMI card). After reading the ALSA FAQ, I found that modifying /usr/share/alsa.conf should work, though modifying /etc/asound.conf should have also worked. For whatever reason, I couldn't get my modifications to /etc/asound.conf to work, so I edited /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf. In the  "# defaults" section I replaced the following:
    defaults.ctl.card NVidia
    defaults.pcm.card NVidia
    defaults.pcm.device 7
    I opted to use the key NVidia rather than the card number (1) since I've read in numerous places that the card index can change unexpectedly after a reboot/update. The key can be checked with cat /proc/asound/cards as shown above.
    After this, I reloaded ALSA (/etc/rc.d/alsa restart) and verified that the sound worked through the default channel:
    aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D default
    Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono
    Finally, I rebooted, chose the HDA NVidia (ALSA Mixer) option from gnome-volume-control, and loaded a movie in gnome-mplayer. I was pleased to hear crystal clear sound with functioning volume control
    I Hope this helps someone else, I found it very hard to piece together how to diagnose and resolve this problem. Here are some of the resources I found useful:
    Arch Wiki ALSA Page
    ALSA FAQ for how to change default sound card
    ALSA FAQ
    XBMC Troubleshooting for ION HDMI

    @sprince09 Can you hear sound through HDMI when you run aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav -D plughw:1,7 ?
    (8 and 9 also worked, device 3 gave static...)
    - what does it mean? How do you know that they are working?
    What options do you have for snd_hda_intel in /etc/modprobe.d/ ?  Can you play the following:
    mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=1,7 file.wav
    BTW, can you hear sound form video files in xine? If yes, can you post your ~/.xine/config ?

  • Monitor Output, for 24p

    Hey all,
    So my set up is like this.... Firewire cable to Camera (Deck) to S-Video to Sony monitor.
    Now what I've noticed, that if I edit something thats 29.97 frames it will play back on my monitor, but anything that is 24p or 23p... won't play as a movie, only as stills... Is there anyway to change it so you could have a 24p project play as a smooth movie not in single frames?
    Thanks!
    -Blake

    you can view your 24P material on your computer monitor.
    What is it you are trying to accomplish and what are your deliverables?
    that will determine your course of action.
    If you are not going to master to an SD tape based format, and are cutting for web or SD DVD delivery your computer monitor will suffice.
    If you are going to master to tape and release in SD stay at 29.97 since that's what you will end up on in an NTSC SD world.
    The whole intent of 24P in standard def is to mimic the effect of shooting on film and transferring to video. It's a look.
    The only reason I know of to use 23.98 SD is if you are off lining a project where the source footage is too demanding of a small system to work with, and be able to match the frame rate. Even at that DVCProHD at 23.98 would be better suited for that workflow.
    Then again I'm an old guy and that's the way I think

    When considering USB solutions you need to check which screen resolutions they support; for instance the Lenovo USB Port Replicator "supports video resolutions up to 1440 x 900 at 60 Hz; 1400 x 1050 at 60, 75, or 85 Hz with superior quality"

  • Dual Monitor Player for Website

    Hello!
    We are designing our website and have before and after video samples.
    On the website - we want the 2 videos to play at the same time so that clients can compare them.
    I already have a Windows Media Player  box on the web for a single video  to play within but need to know how to accomplish 2 videos playing at the same time.
    W

    Only Windows users can view WMV content which locks out all mobile users, tablet users and Mac users and whatever. That makes no sense. Second, nobody would want to play two discrete streams at the same time for bandwidth, performance and synchronizity considerations. ou simply combine the two videos into a single one in a video editing program.
