Question / Help Quicksync Help

[sexpot]

Hello,

I read the guide and my cpu and mobo both support quicksync. My question is, I'm currently running on a dual screen setup with both monitors plugged into my video card. How do I enable quicksync and keep my two screens?

cpu - i5 2500k
mobo - asus max iv gene

thanks

yes, as stated, i've already read that guide and know how to enable quicksync. my question was and still remains, how can i utilize both screen while quicksync is enabled

both screens are hooked into my video card right now, evga gtx 580. when i read the guide, it says to enable my onboard video. do i connect my main display to the onboard video and secondary to my video card?

No, you don't connect anything to your onboard video. You pretend that there is something connected, while in fact there is nothing. In the linked guide, you do this by using "another display not detected" and using the entry "try to connect anyway..." that is shown in step 6 of the guide.

If you do this, you have a display without connected monitor. The only problem with this is, that there may actually be applications that open windows on that - they are invisible. You are also able to move the mouse there, so it vanishes from your view.
