Can not connect 3rd Display

Post by sixtonveit »

Hey,
I am using Resolume Arena 6.
3 screens 1920x1080 each.
Screen 1 connected to AMD Radeon HD7700 (card 1) - Resolume: "Display1"
Screen 2 connected to AMD Radeon HD7700 (card 2) - Resolume: "Display17"
Screen 3 connected to Intel HD Graphics 530 (onboard) - Resolume: "Display2"
Windows Setup works fine. I have a 3-screen-desktop.

Unfortunately Resolume shows Screen 2 with name "Display17" and the Output is not on Screen 2, it is also on Screen 1. So Resolume Display 1 and Display 17 is only on Screen 1 (Windows), Screen 2 is not possible.
Screen 3 on Intel card alias Display 2 is fine.

Any Idea how to solve?

Thanks a lot!

Rather than connecting to two cards + the integrated GPU, why don't you connect everything to your main HD7700 card?

I think you should be able to run your 3 displays even from a single one of your AMD cards, if I'm reading the specs right.
That would be the way to get the best performance.
That said, this type of issue, where outputs are showing on the wrong monitor can usually be worked around by setting the windows display scaling to 100%on every output.
This is an issue we'll have to fix in Resolume 6 properly.

Hi all,
thanks for your answer!

I have seen that there is only one AMD Radeon, not 2.

I found the settings "eyefinity" in the Radeon Settings where it is possible to combine the 2 display into one (1920 x 2160 pxl). Resolume can handle now the 2 Screen because they are displayed as one.
