Dual screen gaming

comm4nd3r ch31f · Dec 25, 2017

is there an HDMI lead/device that will allow me to play games on 2 monitors next to each other( so the image is spread over the 2 screens) i don't want to invest in a "splitter" as i believe this would just create two identical screens?? which is not what
i want. any help or links would be greatly appreciated.

Dual screens

So I've both heard and read that it is possible to mirror the output from the 360 on to 2 screens but I'm having some issues setting it up. I have the HDMI port going into the main monitor and the component cable running audio into our speaker system, with
the yellow video cable running into the 2nd screen which is a smaller TV. HDMI and audio work fine, but I can't get an image on the 2nd screen unless I unplug the HDMI cable. I know that there is a way to make this work but there's something I'm obviously
missing

Dual Screens

Dual Screens are currently not a WIP project. Split screen is all you can currently do at the moment you can dual screen with two Xbox's connect via LAN but you'll need to consoles connected to the internet at the same time.

If you're asking for a device that splits an HDMI signal in half, and sends each half to a screen so you have two screens acting as one continuous display, there's not much out there as far as I can tell.

The closest thing I can point out for you is a "Matrox DualHead2Go", but it runs over DVI. Theoretically, you could convert each DVI lead to HDMI, but I'm not
too sure that this would end up working properly. Also, since the Xbox One is meant to output 16:9 resolutions, it would look horribly stretched if you were to spread those halved images over two monitors.

Try performing a hard restart on the console.

To perform a hard restart, hold the power button for 10 seconds while the system is on. The system will turn off. When you hit the button again, it will start and display the green start-up screen.

Hi!

The console doesn't support dual screen (or multiple outputs). It's a TV setting that changes the HDMI input signal.
