Hello,
Before upgrading to Vista my Nvidia display drivers allowed me to control and display video windowed on the primary screen whilst having the video output displayed full-screen on a secondary screen. The feature was called "overlay mirroring" or some such, and has been a feature of the Nvidia driver for as long as I can remember, even my 5 year old notebook with a GeForce2 can do it (under XP). I used to use this every week whilst working in my campus nightclub to mix videos into my sets, allowing me to control the video on my primary screen, and having it played-back fullscreen on a projector.
Since installing Vista this feature has dissapeared, Nvidia claim that had to remove the functionality from the driver because of some kind of piracy protection system embeded in Vista. This sounds like an excuse to me, since ATI Vista drivers still have this functionality.
Can someone shed some light on this issue? Is there integral code in Vista that prevents this? Or are NVidia making excuses for slow and poor Vista driver support?
Seb.
