close VDJ.
Right click on desktop > properties > settings > click on the monitor with the big "2" on it
and click "extend my desktop onto this monitor" click okay
start vdj
Just go in virtualdj CONFIG > VIDEO > activate and select the output other than "window"

djayentertainment,
You must have a projector or TV conected in the S-Video output, then you could see another screen in the configuration.
Try this too, In your Windows Desktop right-click your mouse and select "Properties" then "Configuration" You must be able to see 2 squares, one with a number 1 and other with the number 2. You must select "Extend your Windows Desktop to this monitor" and follow the previous post instructions.
Good Luck!

Another Tip: If you can see in the settings of your videocard the option "Force TV detection" you can enable this one, then your PC will not check if there is a TV connected and will give always a signal on the TV-out.

Follow Cyder's advice. Many newbies have trouble becuae they try to attach the monitor or tv AFTER booting.

How do you select 2 external monitors to run the full video without a splitter ie using 3 vid cards ( 1 for VDJ and 2 for 2 x LCD Panel ) davefromlondon

DVD resolution is 720x480. I can use S-Video or Composite RCA video output to use a splitter and get the job done. It's useless to have 3 Video Cards, first because ther is no hardware that could let you have 4 PCI-e x16 or 4 AGP8x to use 4 videocards. If I use PCI only videocards the performance will suck.
As I said, if y only can have 720x480 resolution because the DVD quality, why I have to use 1280x1024 (or greater) display monitors?, that's why I suggest to use S-Video or Composite Video to do this work. Or you could use a XVGA Splitter (x4 or 8 or 16 outputs) and connect PC monitors to display your video outputs. You cannot use more than 2 monitors in a single instance of VDJ.

ok, so to confirm, I can only have vdj software on 1 x monitor and video on 1 x monitor ( or split signall with splitter to give more of the same )

There is the ASUS P5WD2-E Premium, which handles two PCI-express cards using ATI's CrossFire technology.

I got 2 vid cards working on std motherboard - ATi 7000 pci and ati 800 PCI E -both are dual head.
I run VDJ app on pci card and 2 cloned screens on PCI E card for full video ( I'm also splitting 1 to a 3rd projector )
worked great, even with 3d transition....
till I messed with the ATI hyper***** software that sent a french error message & lock up:
"erreur............Debugger detect? Fermer le et relancez l’application!
Pour certain debuggers comme softice, Filemon, Regmon, vous devez redemarer votre pc pour pouvior lancer l’application; Pour certain logicels destiness au cracking, comme IceExt vous devez les desinstallet pour pouvoir lancer l’application"
I created Ticket 1141082286 to solve this.
I still get the error message & lock when i re install 3.2 plus 3.3 upgrade ( from clean source of software) HOWEVER, I dont get the message and am runnink ok if i reinstall 3.2 but not the 3.3 upgrade. I then installed 3.2 ans 3.3 upgrade on another pc and worked fine !!
