I'm considering buying a 1080p TV (Samsung's UE32F5000) which lacks DLNA, so I may hook it directly to my PC via DVI (PC -> DVI port -> HDMI adaptor -> HDMI cable -> TV). My - hopefully simple - question is this: are there any apps available (or does ATI's Catalyst or even Windows' display properties have the functionality) to flip between display configurations on-the-fly? Reason is that I'd like to use the TV as an occasional second display, but don't want it permanently connected in Windows and I don't like the idea of having to enable the display via Display Properties every time. Some kind of shortcut-key combination would be ideal Edit: Seems Windows' "Projector Mode" will do the job via Win+P (sauce). Opinions still appreciated
Well everything in the world on Microsoft is powershell based. So I would post on some of the technet forums... there are top bods on PS, then just get the script and run it when you want to setup the second screen.
Two utils that might give you more flexibility : http://www.displayfusion.com/Features/ - DisplayFusion http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/tour/ - Ultramon
Thanks - didn't realise Windows was that script-able I already use (or used to use) UltraMon for multiple-desktop Taskbars, didn't realise it could do shortcuts too +rep for both of you
