Anyone know how to make youtube on one screen? It extends across all three of my displays.

 

-I also have display fusion.

I am using nvidia surround so it's like all three screens are one.

It's annoying to have to go all the way to the right to get out of full screen  and all the way to the left to pause the video.

@TBNRunity No you don't have to disable surround!

 

Use DisplayFusion monitor configuration to virtually split the monitor into 3.

Darn, I was hoping I wasn't going to have too.

Unfortunately that is the only way around it, Ive been fighting with that for years myself. What i do most times if i really want to use my other screens for another purpose is enlarge the video (theres a button on most videos for that though some lack it) Thats the closest you can get without fully disabling surround :(

its a pain, but i only used surround for games so its not too difficult to add 2 minutes to game boot time

That would make it three separate monitors, which doesn't work that well in games that don't support triple-monitor configs and would only stretch across all 3 when using a single large Nvidia Surround array

Huh, I recall it working for me fine with Nvidia Surround, and keeping game compatibility, which is why I recommended it. Unfortunately I don't have a motherboard with working PCI-E slots to test. But I had this problem, and I remember working around it.

Well... I will have to live with it being minimized

another thin you can do is get a fourth screen, and set it as your auxillary display, and fullscreen up there. it wont exand accross your other three. it will stay on your auxillary. x3

Nah, don't disable Surround.

 

Just set your screen resolution to the highest non-surround res you can get then set itback to the max when you're done.cFdWCdP.png

but thats alot of work just for every time you wanna watch a video...

 

i think the auxillary screen is a great option if you have the spare cash.

it doesnt need to be the same screen as your surround, not does it need to be **n amazing, it just needs to look good and be compatible within your budget. \

:D
