TV as extended desktop screen via DLNA?

Wirelessly as a quick, convenient extra screen with laptop from time to time.
Is there any solution ready to do this?
I know I can already send my mbp's desktop to tv with vlc, but this is like "mirroring".
What I'd like to do is, that I could define a "virtual monitor" with resolution of 1920x1080 and send that to tv with vlc or any other app that would act as dlna server sending "live" picture of that virtual screen.

"any way"
Applications such as ScreenRecycler, http://www.screenrecycler.com/ScreenRecycler.html, can do it.

Firefox behaves poorly on extended desktop screen

After version 5.x, when I put FF on my extended desktop, the browser behaves poorly:
I cannot use any kind of lists or the address bar. The best way to describe the problem is that the lookup/search in that field causes the field to appear then disappear.
It even occurs for the menu and drop-down lists. It makes it almost impossible to select anything. I have to almost exclusively use the browser on my main monitor. This truly impedes my ability to do work. (I just found it happens with the spell check pop-up). Basically it happens with any type of list.
And NO I did not apply ANY upgrades to the monitor drivers. However, I did apply Windows upgrades but I cannot tell you which is the fox and which is the hen house, and who stole the eggs!
I just want it to work again! And yes, I have applied new FF updates and it has not solved the problem.
Please ask questions at an intermediate-advanced level of knowledge because I do have more than a basic understanding so I have probably already tried something but forget to mention it.
Thank you so much for your time and help!
Truly frustrated and perplexed,
Barbara

Try to disable hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.<br />
You can uninstall and remove Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.

Portege m700 Tablet Extended Desktop Problem

I've looked all over and can't find a good answer to this, so I figured I'd better check with the source! I have a Toshiba Portege m700 tablet PC, which has an LCD monitor connected using the digital cable.
I have the external monitor set as my primary, with the notebook monitor set as the secondary, providing extra desktop real estate to the right of the first monitor.
The problem is that when I use the touchscreen, the mouse controls are only active on the primary monitor (the external one). What I'd like to do is have the external monitor be primary, the notebook monitor be secondary, and be able to drag items to the notebook and use ink, or onenote, or other touchscreen apps on there. I want the touchscreen to control ONLY the secondary (notebook) monitor. Is this possible?
It seems like there should be some way to just instruct the computer to map the touchscreen to the secondary monitor instead of always just mapping to the primary.
However, if there is not, what I did experiment with is having the notebook as primary and the external as secondary, and then using some sort of multimonitor software to manage the taskbar and such to create the illusion of the external monitor being primary. The problem here is that while the notebook is 1280 x 800 resolution, the external monitor is capable of 1280 x 1024, but when set as secondary will go no higher than 1280 x 800. Is there a way to force the external monitor to run in 1280 x 1024 if I'm using it as the secondary?
Is this something for which I need an updated graphics driver? I tried to get a newer version of the Intel GMA, but it actually removed all extended desktop options for me, so I rolled it back. The version it's running is 6.14.10.4837.
Thank you in advance for anyone pointing me to any driver updates, configuration directions, or external software that can effectively manage all these options of extended desktop, screen resolution, and what monitor is assigned to touchscreen control!

I've just tested the "Extended Desktop for Tablet PC" powertoy, and that doesn't solve this problem. With the tablet set as the secondary monitor, when I move the window onto that screen, it just recurses the image over itself, which isn't really useful.
No one has any other ideas about this?

Leopard Desktop Display - How to Size Photo Centered on Desktop Screen ? ?

6/14/2008. Since I installed Leopard two days ago, I have a challenge that I did not have on OS X 10.3.9. A "minor" one. I changed the color on my desktop screen, via System Preferences and Desktop and Screen Savor. I chose to use an imported photo, .jpg type, which I had imported into the Pictures or Picture Folder. I picked out the color for the screen. I selected "center" of where it should appear on the screen. Voila. It happened. I'm often ecstatic when computers and their directions work correctly and simply and directed. But the .jpg photo is only 2 high x 4 inches wide. The OS X 10.3.9 held it at 4 x 5 inches. How can I adjust Leopard or the photo to show it larger, so I don't have to squint to try to view the photo on the center of the desktop screen ? ? I will be happy for any suggestions and answers. Best wishes and thank you. C. Yopst, Chicago

when you choose this option, the image is displayed at its actual size, whatever it is. you can use the option "fit to screen" to make it larger. alternatively, resize the original to the size you want (for example, iphoto can adjust the size when you are exporting a pic, it's even easier in Preview) and use that as your background picture.

In response to below------Thank you Lynn-----Yes, there is a main panel--I will attach----and if you have any further suggestions please let me know--Thanks again
How are you running this program? Is there a top level vi which calls the ones you posted? The Display image on screen.vi will display two images in succession, but according to the note on the block diagram the second image is blank. It seems as though this would intentionally create a flicker.
The sequence structure is unnecessary. Dataflow will determine the order of execution. The only exception is the time delay in the third frame. Since it has no data dependency, a single frame sequence may be useful to assure that the delay occurs before the picture is updated. A simple state machine might be a more versatile architecture for what you may be trying to do.
It is not necessary to write the FR.PanelBounds property immediately after reading it, nor is it necessary to read it a second time in the second frame. Just wire from the first read.

I cannot get my iMac to connect to my macbook via Thunderbolt to use my laptop as an extended desktop

I am trying to connect my iMac 21.5" desktop to my macbook pro via Thunderbolt cable so that I can use my laptop as an extended desktop. I have tried using detect displays to get it to show up and nothing happens. I've tried doing command + F2 to make it a targeted display, but the only thing I can get to happen is my iMac will mirror my Macbook and that's not what I want. No matter what I have tried it hasn't worked. I have tried turning both computers off and I have a brand new thunderbolt cable. I've updated all the software. Is there anything else I'm missing??
I'm running OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
Thank you !

We've already done all of that. And we used the same thunderbolt cable to connect two iMac's and that worked totally fine doing the Command+ F2. I don't understand why we can't get the macbook to do the same.

Full screen applictions and extended desktop

I just got my 20" iMac and have connected a 19" LCD to it in extended desktop. My only problem is that when i run a full screen application (like WoW or Front Row) the second monitor shuts off. I don't want this to happen, I want it to stay on and still be able to move the mouse over to it and use the programs that i have opened on it. does anyone know of a way to make this happen?
Thank you!

well i found out that the next patch will fix the problem in WoW, but that still leaves front row... is there some patch or hack for front row to add dual monitor support?

Does Portg R700-17W lsupport extended desktop across 3 screens?

Hi,
I've a Portg R700-17W laptop with a replicator port. I'd like to have an extended desktop in Windows 7, with one external monitor on the VGA port, one on the HDMI, and the laptop screen. Is this possible? If so, what resolutions can it support?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Dont think its possible using an port replicator you will need to use something like Dynadock U3 since the Dynadock supports an own graphic chip and it allows you to use tree displays (2 external and 1 internal)

[T60] Use Laptop Screen as Extended Desktop

I have a customer who wants to use her external monitor as the primary, and the laptop screen as the extended desktop. I created a profile in Presentation Director to do this, however every time she reboots she has to go back in an manually apply the scheme. I do have this scheme selected as the default to use when the laptop is docked, that seems to be ignored though.
Any thoughts on how to get the settings to stick through a reboot? Alternately, are there any command line arguments for Presentation Director that I could use to add a command to the startup group and apply the profile that way?
Thanks!

Heya,
There is a program out there you can download that will make this possible. It is called "BBScreenStream", not well known, but I use it myself, and it works great. It allows you to see your Blackberry on your computer screen att different ratio settings, and updates the screen at regular intervals. Requires you to have Blackberry Desktop installed, and JL-Commander.
Try it out. Uses USB only.
Good Luck, and happy holidays.

I'm running vista but this has happened to me in XP as well.
I have two monitors one of them is configured to be an extended
desktop. I view a standard flash video such as one at
thedailyshow.com and click to view in full screen. I want the full
screen on the extended desktop but it displays in my primary
monitor.
How do I fix this?

desktop, as will youtube

Issue when playing movie on full screen with extended desktop.

I'm running Itunes on Windows and I'm using a dual monitor configuration. When I play a movie and go to full screen, Itunes will go full screen on the current screen but also will set black the second monitor. So, when I go full screen I lost the second monitor. Why!!?
Is there any way to go full screen without touching my second monitor? I usually see movies while I do other stuff in the second monitor.

Hi Dan - I'm not sure I know what you mean by 'kick in Expose', can you please explain?
It's a weird one as it doesn't happen all the time. Could it have anything to do with running Apple TV and the MacBook 'thinking' there is another display (extended desktop) and playing the video there?
