@AlexPerathoner I just started using this great app today and this is the only feature I'm missing! Anyway, thanks for creating this app! Great work!

Ohh a fellow Münchner :)

Ein-Tim commented 1 year ago

Haha, yeah! I'm waving over to you at the TUM! 👋

Are there any plans to support external monitors soon?

AlexPerathoner commented 1 year ago

Yes, but I haven't looked into it yet. So it will probably take a couple weeks until I have a release ready. Anyway it's in top priority now :)

any updates?

Just want to note that BetterDisplay (successor to MonitorControl) does support integration with external OSD presentation apps.

The API seems to be developed for MediaMate but made in a generic way so it's open to other apps as well.
