dual view with a tv and monitor
I have a GeForce Ti4200 with 128MB. I have it set up as a dual view monitor. The left side is the 17" monitor, the right side is the Tv. When i watch BTV whither windowed or full screen on the left, it has about 40% CPU utilization. When I watch it on the TV side full screen or windows, it runs at 100% CPU utilizaton. When I run my card as a clone, ie the tv shows exactly what the monitor shows, it runs at 40% CPU utilization. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this? I don't remember it doing this with BTV 3.4, but it IS doing it with 3.5.
Any help, theories, or comments would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to fix this because I compute on the left side and watch videos on the right. If I just watch the video with WMV only, it has a constant LOW CPU utilization rate on either side, so I am pretty sure it has something to do with BTV. I have tried going back to BTV 3.4 but when I do that the UPDATE guides DO NOT update anymore. It seems I HAVE to use 3.5 if I want constant updated viewing guides. If someone could tell me how to fix the cpu problem or make 3.4 update it's guide, that would solve my problem. I tried updating it manually with the BTV home page internet thing settings and it acts like it is updating by going 1%...5%...10% done and so and so on, but the end result is NO UPDATES. Please, anyone, any ideas? Last edited by john_smuda; 11-20-2004 at 04:15 PM. |
