Hi everyone,
I'm migrating from Mac to Windows to avoid a long list of performance & stability issues with macOS Big Sur + eGPU + Madmapper, and have a question about Windows.
With Madmapper on Mac, I am able to maintain output to my projectors even if I switch the focus to a Mac space not containing the Madmapper UI. With MIDI controllers, I often don't need to see the Madmapper UI during a show and would rather be controlling something else on my main monitor (Ableton Live, or something else) alongside this. Madmapper continues sending output to the projects when I switch the focus away, in full screen output mode.
On Windows, I notice that Madmapper stops sending output to my projectors if I switch to a different windows desktop (the analog to Mac spaces). Basically it seems that the Madmapper UI needs to remain on a screen for full-screen mode (output mode) to continue working.
Is there a way around this? I'm hoping to drive 3 projectors and 1 monitor from my GPU, but I need that monitor to be showing something that isn't Madmapper. One idea is to run TouchOSC on a touchscreen monitor and not use the MM UI at all during a show.
Thanks, and pardon my ignorance! I am rather new to Windows for anything other than games.
