I am new to madmapper and I cant seem to output full screen to my projector. As with a few other people in this forum I get full screen on both my projector and computer screen at the same time. I've looked at the output and madmapper doesn't seem to be seeing my projector. I just get 'none' and 'LCD' on my outputs. I am using a USB cable to connect Macbook Pro to projector, would vga and adapter make a difference? Any help would be appreciated with a gig in less than a week! Thanks

avoid usb display things, it's not a standard way to connect any projectors or display to a computer… DVI, HDMI, VGA, this is how you do

also, check that the mirroring option is disabled in your display settings of the system preferences

Thanks so much, the usb cable caused all the issues. Thunderbolt to VGA and it all worked sweet as.
