I would like the tv to be a duplicate display as my laptop, not an extended display, although I've been fiddling with both to try and get this to work.
When on my 55" 1080p Vizio tv, I hook up my laptop and everything that is on my laptop is displayed correctly on the tv. I don't have to do a thing. When I go into my control panel, display, the screen res is 1366 x 768, as it is also in TD. If only it were that simple for all tv's.
When I go downstairs to my RCA 32" 1080p tv or upstairs to my LG 42" 1080p tv (I'm having the same issue on both), when the laptop is hooked up, I cannot see the bottom half of the taskbar on the tv, and about the same amount of space is missing on the top, left, and right sides as well, even though I see all of it on my laptop. If I go into TD3, it displays correctly, with the exception that the bottom line of payouts I can't see. If I manually adjust the screen upwards, eventually I see it, but then I can no longer see the top line, Montanaro Poker.
No matter what I change the screen res to 1360x768, 1280x720, 1024x768, or 800x600, I have a different issue. For instance, at 1024x768 from top to bottom I can see everything, however only the first 2/3 of the left side of the screen display...so any cells I have on the right side of the screen are gone.
When trying extended display, I switch windows to extend the displays, convert to extended display in TD after adjusting the res to that which is listed in windows, then I adjust the coordinates so that I can see the TD screen on the tv, (but not the laptop), but I still can't see the whole thing. A small portion of the top, bottom, and left and right sides are still missing. Except here, when I manually adjust the screen upwards, the bottom line of payouts is not there. I can see the top curves of the lettering for it as the top line disapears, but it cuts off and I eventually see my laptop background and the payout structure is completely missing. I even tried swithcing the res on windows to all possible settings and then swithed the extended display res in TD to match. Still the same thing.
Am I missing something??? Or do I just need all new tv's like my new 55" Vizio TV that is less than 1 year old and then I wouldn't have any issues???
