Help detecting monitors #466

Closed Scarl5 closed 1 year ago

Scarl5 commented 1 year ago

Hey, I don't know much about the protocol, but I wanted to ask if you could shine some light about what is going on in my setup. I have a double monitor setup and the program sometimes detects one of them, sometimes none, sometimes the other one but its not consistent. Restarting the monitor does not help either but restarting the app sometimes changes what monitor is working. I have tried the preclear command but maybe I'm doing it wrong, maybe it doesn't work like that, but maybe there is a command that could help me so that's why Im asking. Here is both logs that you request: operation.txt probe.txt

I have changed the extension because it wasn't letting me upload them

Thank you for the logs. Your monitors don't respond to inquiries for capabilities but preclear option should work. However, it cannot fix hardware instability.

K, the preclear seems to work well for one monitor, but the other one is having some trouble, maybe I'm using the preclear wrong, is this okay? image

You don't need to repeat /preclear. It should be like

/preclear [First Device Instance ID] [Second Device Instance ID]
