vrtesterman | Ooh that's exciting. Seer is supposed to have their new universal controllers available soon too. | 21:07:26 |
vrtesterman | Are you aware that Windows 10/11 Pro for Workstations has a switch to make any connected display behave as if it were a dedicated display suitable for DisplayCore direct frame compositors? | 21:09:10 |
vrtesterman | You don't need to modify the EDID yourself using an EDID box this way | 21:09:51 |
.pblack | no, not specifically aware of that, as i dont use windows | 21:09:55 |
vrtesterman | I got the Vulkan Direct2Display working this way as well. | 21:10:11 |
haagch | do you have a link to docs? | 21:10:19 |
vrtesterman | on Windows, not just Linux | 21:10:20 |
haagch | and this is not in windows home edition? | 21:10:57 |
.pblack | i guess you are talking about https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/windows-driver-docs/blob/staging/windows-driver-docs-pr/display/specialized-monitors-compositor.md | 21:11:59 |
vrtesterman | Yep. | 21:12:47 |
vrtesterman | I was just googling to find some old links on Windows for workstations, there's a simple slider to spoof the EDID of any display to replace it with this one, which has the side-effect of hiding it from Windows Desktop compositor and allowing you to push frames to it | 21:13:32 |
vrtesterman | it works, I coded some stuff myself on it a few years back | 21:13:42 |
.pblack | seems promising, good info! thanks | 21:13:45 |
haagch | User Override - For custom hardware installations using off-the-shelf monitors, Windows provides a UI toggle for designating monitors as "specialized".
so this has been in the docs for 3 years | 21:13:55 |
haagch | [!NOTE] Specialized displays are only available starting in Windows 10, version 2004, and require Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows 10 Pro for Workstations, or Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. | 21:14:22 |
vrtesterman | works w/ windows 11 for workstations too | 21:14:41 |
vrtesterman | you can upgrade your windows 10/11 to Pro for workstations for like a hundred bucks I think on Microsoft store. probably cheaper. (even "free" if you go that route and only use it for DIY stuff) | 21:15:14 |
