I have 3 displays:
- 1 control display I can see
- 2 40" Full HD displays I can't see
my need is to play videos and presentations fullscreen on the two 40" screens while being able to control them from the control display.
So far I am able to achieve this with a cumbersome set of keyboard shortcuts like:
- open VLC on control display
- send to left display with Win + Shift + Left
- go fullscreen with f
and more combinations to restore, get VLC on control display etc.
This is really error prone and not professional.
Also I wish I have a media player and a slideshow player that can:
- send the same video / slideshow to the two 40" displays at the same time
- send two different videos / slideshows, one each 40" display
having all controls on the central display, the only one I can see.
Any advice welcome, thank you for your support.
