AE 6.5 on Two Screens?

[Barend Onneweer]

Uhm…

Yes, you can run AE on a dual display system. I’d highly recommend it actually.

Personally, I have the system set up to stretch the desktop across the two displays. So maximizing the window (in Windows) will spread AE over the two displays.

I’m not sure why you expect problems, but maybe you could explain?

Thanks for the response. After some playing around, I was finally able to get AE into a two-screen config.

And, I wasn’t expecting any problems, so I think I’m all set.

Thanks again,

Tim

I am running AE on a dual display, one side off my integrated display card, the second screen off an ATI radeon card.

I actually use one screen for the timeline, one for tools, and a third smaller tv monitor off a firewire card and a canopus firewire to video converter for video preview. In fact I think, it is more important to have a tv monitor as a second screen than a computer display. You could get the firewire card and the canopus converter for about $120.00 and run it to a tv to see color issues right away.

Of course all of this will be absolete soon 😉
