Hi Danger,
does your third output appear in the display properties panel of windows. When it appears there it should appear in resolume. Resolume shows only connected and enables devices.
Cheers

Hi danger,
i used a parhelia 256 with res 1.5 a long time, needless to say that was before preview matrix and stuff...
i tried it once to get the setup u want but didnt succeed... i think the tv-out (when u use 2 monitors and a tv-out) is sort of an overlay that goes to the tv-out... therefore it cant be used like that (and u dont want to use DV-MAX).
maybe u can try (just to test) setting up the screen as 3 display and than try it, if the 3rd screen shows in res the tv-out is an overlay...
and if it shows maybe u can use a cheap scan converter or a D-sub->video converter...
good luck,
SuperficiaL

Hi there,
has anyone got a three screen set-up working with the Matrox Parhelia 128 AGP?
I've tried all sorts of monitor set-ups and can't get Resolume to see more that two screens. I bought the card especially for the three screen option
Any help would be appreciated

I have the same problem with my Matrox millenium P750 triplehead. I thought I could use one monitor for control and the other two for a double wide screen, but the only way that resolume -and windows- detects the three is configuring a single screen of 3072x768 pixels. Then I only have resolume control in all screens wide, no second monitor (on windows it only appear one screen, too).
Any idea on how to configure it?
