Resolume 6 OsX Advanced Mapping Issues

Post by bonuslazer »

Finally upgraded to 6, and having issues outputting to any external displays/projectors in Advanced Output. I've done this about a million times in 5, but for some reason its treating the laptop as the external screen. It is seeing the right output resolution of projector but somehow not sending signal properly.

Yes I have made sure screen mirroring is off.

Running OsX High Sierra, MBP late 2015. Any thoughts?

This happens when you had previously assigned Resolume to use a specific Virtual Desktop. This means it will put all its pixels on it. Annoyingly, OSX won't let you change that back unless you have more than one Virtual Desktop.

So, first open Mission Control (the default hotkey is CTRL + up arrow. You can also find it via Quicklook or in Applications). A grey bar will appear in the top of your screen, showing you all your Virtual Desktops. Move your mouse to the far right of the bar and a plus button will appear. Hit that bad boy. Congrats, you now have a second Virtual Desktop.

Now go to Resolume's icon in the Dock and right click it. Choose Options > All Desktops. Boom. Resolume will understand you want to use all desktops again and your output will work as expected.

If you like, you can go back to Mission Control and delete the second Virtual Desktop you just created. Because you have Resolume assigned to use all Desktops when you deleted it, things will continue to work as expected.
