Forums -> UltraMon™ -> 3 monitors, 1 isn't recognized

I'm trying the switch over to Ultramon for display switching, as Nvidia had removed the hotkey function from their newest drivers.

Untill now I was able to switch between my desktop monitor, my tv and my projector with these hotkeys in the drivers from Nvidia.

Ultramon seems to be a very good alternative, but I cant detect a third monitor, it randomly selects the TV or the projector as the second monitor and no third is displayed in Ultramon's displays settings.

What I would like to create is 3 profiles, for each monitor 1. I only use 1 monitor at the time, dualview or cloning isnt neccesary.

Is Ultramon capable of switching between 3 monitors (with different resolutions)?

Maybee handy to know: desktop monitor is connected through a VGA kabel, TV with Svideo and the projector with DVI to HMDI.

Aslo nice to know, I'm using WinXP.

UltraMon can't switch the second display between TV and monitor, you would need to do this via the Nvidia software.

I'm going to look into this for a future release, but don't know yet if it can be done.

Christian,
Have you had a chance to look into this yet? I'm in very much the same situation as the first poster; I need to be able to select active outputs, two at a time, among S-video, VGA and DVI on a Nvidia card. Current Nvidia drivers offer no means to automate the switching.

Not yet, but I haven't forgotten about it.

I'm also in a similar situation. So your saying that ultramon can't detect two computer monitors and a tv output at the same time?

I wish to setup two profiles one where both monitors are active, and the second where one monitor and the tv is active. Is this possible?

Depends on the video card, if all 3 displays show up in UltraMon menu > Display Settings, you can configure them via UltraMon, otherwise you'll need to switch between TV or VGA output for the second display via the video card software.
