Console pc

[SLOTHINSPACE]

Hello so I am wanting to make a easy console pc experience. Currently running triple monitor setup at my desk, on the other side of my room I have a 4K tv that I use with a controller connected by a hdmi. The way I do it is mirror my main monitor at my desk that displays the games to the tv and then turn the monitor off I’m wondering if there is a more console like way of doing it maybe being able to easily switch the other monitors off when I want to game on the tv ect, thanks

Would need the computer specs.  It might be possible to set up the computer so it could be controlled by a remote, but a variable amount of hardware would be required (which did occasionally come with some computers)

set up the screens in such a way that you just have to change the projection settings from extend (disable TV) to second screen only (disable all but the TV).

 

As long as you dont mess around with other monitors, it ""SHOULD"" remember what screens are enabled and disabled under both options.

How exactly does that work I have 4 displays connected to my gpu I thought that mode in windows only works with one monitor and tv for example to change to second display only ect ?

There are software for making display profiles. For example DisplayFusion. If I'm thinking this correctly, you want at times to only have 1 of those 4 "connected" and set as main monitor. DisplayFusion would have profile you can activate to get that done. For example, I currently have 2 monitors of which one is TV. I use it to some videos, but mainly its just AndroidTV for YT and other streaming services. So when I'm using AndroidTV on it, I don't need nor want it to be monitor for PC. So I have profile for it. 3 clicks (open menu from tray, select profile and approve it). I also have profile where I can have just TV as monitor for PC when I'm doing work on main monitor and another PC.
