Is desk top extended?
What software are you using?

When you say monitor shows the number two, you are saying that windows detected and identified...correct?

Still would like to know what software you are using to play the file.

Also, if computer has Svid out why would you need RF modulator?


Without getting too techy...

Depending on software, when playing a karaoke file a small window will open up(maybe on computer 1 screen). You need to slide it over to screen 2 and expand it.

Do you see the window with lyrics in it on screen 1?

Use mouse to DRAG it over edge of screen 1 onto screen 2.

Drag by placing cursor over object, press and hold left mouse button while moving mouse to desired location.

The computor screen was blank, the tv sreen had microsoft screen saver. The tv has cable input only. That why we had to have the RF Modulator.

You might want to check out a different player. I use Justkaraoke and it finds the 2nd monitor on it's own. Only costs $34.95 has a filler player that you set and forget. Also allows you to enter as many songs into a single singer's que. It is just one of a few reasons I switched from RoxBox to JustKaraoke.

Thank you for the info. I think we will stick with what we have for right now. Still sort of in the learning process. Thank you again.

First things first before you even start your hosting software.

If you move your mouse off the main screen to the right, do you see your mouse pointer appear on the second monitor?

If so, then it is a problem with your hosting software. If not, it's a windows/cabling issue.
