Snapshot - Extended desktops
« on: October 14, 2016, 04:21:48 PM »
Is the snapshot mode on the road map to capture the full desktop when multiple screens are being used?

At the moment snapshot only captures the primary desktop

yes we have it on the road map to support screen capture on multi screen configuration for sometime next year (after mediaTOUCH).

Further to this the snapshot captures the full screen when EyeFinity is used during a display setup but not when using the standard windows extended desktop setup.

Also a big pain the @rse is when using the player over multiple monitors and the player restarts it only starts playing on the primary desktop. We have to run a script (which now activates on startup)  to kill the signage player then restart it - following this restart content appears across all displays. This happens on both windows and mac.

Please can you add it the list to investigate this issue. Thank you.
