Krakatoa Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Anyone using this monitor as a Marquee screen VSDISPLAY 14.9inch 1280x390? If so how are you getting it working in native res? Whenever I set it to native res it BigBox wont show Marquees on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 There are quite a few users that use that display. I have one myself. Make sure you have the same percentage for dpi scaling on both screens. Also check your Hz. I think I first had an issue with mine being set at something other than 60 Hz and BB did not like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they are both running the same Hz (I'll check again tonight to confirm). The funny thing is it works If I don't use the native resolution. Does yours work with the native res? In case it matters I am using an Nvidia card, is there any settings in the Nvidia control panel I need to change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro808 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Try going into the Nvidia Display settings and creating a custom resolution of 1280x390 and set the scaling to "full-screen". I think that is what I did. You can also try these slightly modified marquee xaml files. Just drop them in the theme (or themes) you are using. Place them in the view folder. If you have no luck with the custom resolution these will take the 1280x720 setting and adjust the marquee images to fit in the upper portion of that resolution. It is a hack, but sometimes those cut lcd's do not play nice. PlatformMarqueeView.xaml GameMarqueeView.xaml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
