Post by 5teviewonders »

Hi. Is it possible to use 2 or more displays with LCD Smartie and configure each one separately? Thanks for any help!!

Hi,
I do this by having 2 completely separate copies of smartie in different folders configured for different displays.

works fine.

Oh right. Thanks very much!! I can see this becoming an obsession. Eventually the front of my PC will be covered in LCD panels.

Have a look at http://virtuallcd.codeplex.com/ this can be used with one of those photo frames with a video input or i use it with an iPad and an app called DisplayLink.

Awesome!!! I might use it with a photo frame as i'd like to be able to see my gpu and cpu temperatures right by my keyboard. Was gonna get another lcd but it'd look a bit messy with a bare pcb.
