Dual screen support?

Anyone know if 1.7 will support two screens? As it is now, I can have games up full screen 1680x1050 on one monitor, but on my other 24"er I can't do anything because PJ64 will minimize if I try to interact with my machine.

Is there a setting I'm missing, or is there just no dual screen support? I just want to be able to dedicate a monitor to gaming (like EpsxE can do) and the other monitor for Internet and such.

No It Will Not Have Suport For This In 1.7 Or 1.6 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually you are very wrong axcc123, it has already been worked on for 1.7.

It is something that has been worked on 1.7 and already plays fine on the second monitor without it minimising when the 1st is pressed. There is still a lot to do on it but it is in fact already there.

If more people like yourself became a member of the Project64 1.7 beta proccess, you would then be able to help Jabo perfect this function :)

Hmm...I may have to donate to get 1.7! I would certainly like that functionality, if it's stable.

Sorry to spam, but why did you bother replying if you didn't even know whether or not it had been worked on?

And does Jabo's 1.7 plug-in still render "higher" than it should in windowed mode, which is corrected by PJ64, or are PJ64 and Jabo's video plug-ins compatible with other video plug-ins/emulators?

not sure what you mean by "rendering higher"?

compat with other emus is currently broken, not deliberately, but because we have to improve the plugin specifications to get the features we want. we will worry about cross compat again before 1.7 release, but at that time other emus are going to need to update to the next plugin spec to use our plugins, theres just no way around that, trying to provide backwards compat in the plugins adds too much dev complication.

Can you use a T.V instead of a monitor? And if so what kind of connection would you need? I got an ordinary tube T.V.
