Want to switch from my monitor to my tv using girder

[lyrd]

Im trying to switch my screen output between my monitor and my tv using Girder.

Im using nvidia and it dosn't have twinview so only one of the two can be active at any one time....

The steps i need to go trough to do it manually is Display properties > settings > advanced > nvidias special tab > check a radiobutton that selects device and then press ok a couple of times (on popups asking me if i really want to switch)

I managed to get the display properties up using girder, but thats as far as i got. I need help manuvering tabbed windows and selecting items ín them.

all tips are most welcome.

Have you seen this site (http://tvtool.info/index_e.htm)? I've never used thsi program but other here have. Some liked it, some didn't.

Yes. TV-Tool is great for nVidia cards. It supports commandline switches, so you don't need to let everything popup to change it. It also enables overscan and some other advanced settings for TV-out.

The version 8 is quite new and some people have problems with it. So if this doesn't work for you, try version 7.

Another option is Ultramon. http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/

It will take commandline parameters also.

Yes, Ultramon is also a nice tool. But for TV-out-control on nVidia cards, TV-Tool is superior for sure. I don't know if Ultramon will support the switching to TV-Mode at all.

TVtool has a lot of options for nvidia cards, but you don't get much time to try it. A 15 minute limit is a bit restrictive.

If you want to use Ultramon, the only important thing you would miss from TVTool is the "fullscreen" option, which newer nvidia drivers include in the display control panel.
