    Phantom Third Monitor in Display Arrangement

    Evey since reinstalling OSX(10.4.10) I’ve had a 3rd monitor show up that isn’t sitting on my desk. The OS behaves as if it is there, it just isn’t on my desk (windows can disappear onto it, the dock, my cursor, etc)

    (no, I do not know at what point during the reinstalling of all my programs the third monitor showed up, or if it was there from the begining)

    I have a feeling this has something to do with my Multibridge Pro.

    Any ideas?…on how to get rid of it? 😀

    Hi,

    This is the output of the Multibridge Pro acting as a 3rd display. You can turn it off in the DeckLink preferences under the “Enable Video Desktop” option.
