Can't view video on extended screen Vista

marx 10:02 PM - 19 December, 2008
I can't move the small box like i can on the mac. I've tried this "keep taskbar above other windows" and didn't help. I can't find any other info. I can watch the video fullscreen on the main display, but I can't drag it to the other screen or double click the screen for that matter. I 've tried right clicking the output window tab & clicking move & just about every other button.

any ideas?

it happens now n then....especially after any change of video output hell the output screen disappears. but i hit the taskbar then hit the tab for the output window then it lets me drag it. Vsl always remembers the output window as long as u don't take off the external monitor, if u turn laptop on and external is not connected,,,guess what u have to do it again

oh p.s. make sure the output screen is on top of the serato interface screen. get it...

well i dont even see it. it will just stay minimized. i can only maximize it on my main display but cant make it smaller to view.

yeah that is what happens to me too, hit the task bar on your keyboard the windows icon button next to the ALT button while the interface is up then hit the output window tab on the taskbar then I am able to drag it...

nah no haps, it doesn't work on mine. i click it & nothing. i've tried every combination.

Your saying once you click it, the small window appears right?

I've tried it with serato itself minimized, maximized etc

cpu is was hanging about 55 ish

i was able to bring the video quality all the way up to high which i cant do with my mbp. & buffer was on 5. so with that & smooth video i sure think so. gonna mess with it more later once these overviews build.

processor alone is a grand but damn it makes video games perfect so I can imagine VSL

does this mean vsl works better with vista than xp pro?

I never tried it on XP but for sure it does run on Vista very well. As a matter fact there is an update coming out in the next few weeks that will imporve it even more.
