Calibration displays on monitor not projector

[racer86]

When I try and run a calibration, the stripes display on the monitor, not the projector. I have been able to properly run a calibration from a different computer that runs Windows 8, but not with this computer that runs Windows 10. When I hit the Setup, then Show Projector Server Connected Displays, the projector is labeled localhost0 and the monitor is labeled localhost1. I have changed the displayIndex to 1 but that does not fix the issue.

hi . make sure that windows display setting is extended, we also faced the same issue, resolved it by extending the display from display setting.

The Windows display setting is extended. I have tried switching the display settings but that does not address the problem.

If Show Projector Server Connected Displays shows localhost0 on the projector, shouldn't you set the displayIndex to 0?

It turned out that we needed to download updated drivers for the computer after downloading Windows 10.

We were able to correctly run a calibration once. However, we are now experiencing the same issue again.

Thank you for the advice. We have tried changing the display index from 0 to 1 and back to 0, but that does not help. When we hit the Show Projector name button, the name shows up on the monitor, not the projector.

Does anyone have any other ideas we can try?

Can you write a little C# program that does the following and see if it makes sense?

foreach (var screen in System.Windows.Forms.Screen.AllScreens) Console.WriteLine(screen.DeviceName + "\t" + screen.Bounds);

We were able to get the calibration and ProjectionMappingSample to work today. We left the displayIndex at 0.

Thank you for all of your help.
