New here, so forgive me if this has been answered a thousand times. But maybe not, and I have a long winded question so bear with me. In the olden days both nvidia and ati had a setting in their drivers to project a video that was running from a windowed screen on the main monitor to a second monitor in full screen. Nvidia called it "video mirroring" and Ati called their setting "theater mode". I "think" it had to do with how 'overlay' was used in windows but I can't recall specifics on that. Basically, I would like to replicate this using this software, but can't seem to figure it out. I can get to show up on a second monitor, but it is a zoomed in/rescaled mess. I guess my question is, is there anyway for OBS to project a windowed video onto a second monitor, in it's native resolution, without having to resize it and lose resolution, in the same way the old video cards used to do it? When I try to explain this, most people can't seem to understand what I mean, probably because of how long ago it was when video cards had this fearure, so I am not sure if it will help or not, but I have a picture for reference. The software I am using there is videoredo.
I would have thought this would be a big demand from people who edit video, to have a full screen preview image running on a second monitor, but it seems to not really be a huge thing, or I am just researching it wrong. Any help would be great, because I am a slave to older video cards just to get this to work how I like. And by older, I am talking I am using a radeon HD 3870x2, because on ATI's side, the last video cards with drivers that have the "theater mode" capability, were the radeon hd 4xxx series and below. Thanks!
