Hey guys,

I have a random issue and wondering if anyone has a solution.

Basically I have a projector in the front of a hall, and a PC at the back controlling videos and sound and things.

Now currently I have the PC monitor duplicating the projector but I want the projector to be its own monitor.
I just want a window mimicking the projector if possible so I can make sure its full screen and working correctly. Currently its quite far so I cant see the close window button or volume control and other bits.

I know its a bit of a random request but I could really do with a solution.
Or any better ideas....

If I use it as split screen that's fine and exactly what I want but I can't see the buttons or volume sliders and bits on the projector.
But I don't want duplicate as between videos I sometimes (often) need to pull up some amp controls and trun on or off microphones or other bits and pieces.

I hope this all makes sense?
 
Maybe you could set up a dual screen at the back, buy an adapter than allows multiple screens to be plugged into one PC and duplicates those monitors and plug both your projector and second screen into that.
 
Cheers,

Thats kinda what I thought about this morning.
Maybe getting a small 1080p monitor, and getting a HDMI splitter.

GPU -> Splitter -> Projector & Small Monitor.

Would this work?
