Question / Help quick dual streaming resolution problem

I have a dual streaming setup. on my gaming pc it is a 4770k processor with a 1920x1080 benq monitor @ 144hz. On my streaming pc my monitor is 1680x1050 resolution. whenever i stream on my main gaming monitor and have it display to my streaming pc, the whole picture doesn't fit. so naturally i thought i need a 2nd 1920x1080 monitor to display it. but is there also a way to scale the picture so that the whole picture fits on my streaming (1680x1050) monitor? Thanks for taking the time out to read.

Just change the Base (Canvas) resolution in Settings -> Video on the streaming PC. You can manually enter any resolution you want there.

Ok. will do. i see the option you are talking about. but i have to back up a little. i have 2 monitors, gaming pc monitor, and streaming pc monitor. would i be able to get the capture card hooked up to my streaming pc and let it show the game play and use the gaming pc monitor to play off of? or would i need a 3rd monitor to achieve this. i am thinking i could pull it off with 2 monitors but i am a lil confused on how to do it. my streaming pc had a vga (which i'm using) to hook up to my streaming pc, and the out from my capture card is also going to the monitor of my streaming pc in the dvi slot. yet it's not detecting so that i could go into dual monitor mode in my display settings. is there something i'm not doing right? thanks for reading, anything helps :)

I have my capture card being powered by my streaming pc. the "in" in the capture card goes from the avermedia to my gaming pc. and then the "out" of the capture card goes to my other monitor. do i need a 3rd monitor to my streaming pc? so that my streaming pc has two monitors and my gaming monitor is just one monitor?
