Output to TWO displays?

[Trevor Newell]

The 2010 version of the software could allow for this functionality; however I would need to first try and setup a few tests to make sure the timing resolution and results of a multi-monitor experiment will work as efficiently as a single-monitor experiment would.

I'll look into both requests and see what we can do.

Would you be ok with waiting until Friday to receive a copy of the 2010 beta Anne? Once I get the beta to you I should be able to include instructions to help you get started with an experiment that uses both the ability to skip anywhere within the experiment and run on multiple monitors.

Okay - til Friday then! If these will work, that would be fantastic! Cheers!

I know this thread is quite old, but it seems I could use the same functionality in an experiment, does this work now?
I would prefer a solution with simply multiple windows of direct rt with the same stimuli though, since I want to display them on extended desktops surrounding a subject on top of something else.

Any progress on this dual monitor function?

I'd like one computer to send 2 different stimuli to 2 different monitors....

I'm trying to do the same thing, i.e., different stimuli on different monitors but all part of the same trial. Did you figure out if MediaLab or DirectRT could do this?

Hello,
DirectRT can not currently do this feature... as far as I know there has been no progress. Please reply again if you know otherwise!
Thanks!

A couple of years ago I was interested if DirectRT could send one stimulus to 1 monitor and a 2nd stimulus to a 2nd monitor - from within the same input file.
Back then you said you were looking into it. Is this feature available yet?
