Note that you should overwrite or save new versions of your Monitor Profiles after updating. Please let us know how it works out when you've had a chance to give it a go.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#12 Wed, 22 Feb 2017 21:30:48 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#12 DisplayFusion Oh awesome!

Thanks for the support and keeping me updated. Let me know if you could get some testing done on a 1070

However, I'm using a GTX 650 Ti, and I noticed you've got a GTX 1070. There was another Discussions topic with similar issues of the monitor IDs changing when switching between cloned and extended, and that customer was also using a GTX 1070, so I'm starting to wonder if it's an issue specific to the 1070.

Not sure if I can get my hands on a 1070 for testing, but if I do, I'll keep you posted on what I find out.

When the receiver is off, then no. The TV is just disabled but still recognised by the computer. When the receiver is unplugged the TV is completely missing though. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#5 Wed, 09 Nov 2016 21:08:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#5 DisplayFusion When the TV/receiver are off, does that display get fully disconnected from the computer? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#4 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 19:40:40 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#4 DisplayFusion Hi Keith

In an attempt to improve the situation I changed the connections on my GPU. The error does not appear, but that could also be due to my receiver not being plugged out since the weekend.

Anyway, when I switch as you suggested the following happens:

"TV"

TV is display 1 , everything else is off, all is normal. You see the TV has the wallpaper of my 27" monitor though and not the one saying TV.

to "PC & TV"

The TV is the primary display, still display "1", the PC screens are mirrored. This is not how it was saved. TV and 22" (1&3) should be mirrored and the 27" (2) should be the primary display.

to "Default"

TV (1) is still the primary display with wallpaper for 27", 27" (2) is secondary with wallpaper for 22". It should be: TV off, 27" primary, 22" secondary.

Even if I set up the screens correctly again, Display fusion says that the relevant profiles are detected and I can't save them.

I hope you can do something with my explanation, I tried to keep it as clear as possible. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#3 Tue, 08 Nov 2016 00:52:54 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#3 DisplayFusion Yeah, I think the IDs are contributing to the issue for sure. I will test out this scenario here and see if I can reproduce this error.

In the meantime, could you do another test for me? If you switch from "TV" to "PC & TV," then from "PC & TV" to "Default," does it work correctly? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#2 Thu, 03 Nov 2016 16:57:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3#2 DisplayFusion I think part of the problem is that the displays change IDs between the profiles. You can see in the screenshots below my screen changes from number 3 to number 2 after I press "Apply" ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3 Wed, 02 Nov 2016 19:52:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/disabled-monitors-problem/?ID=9d064cfc-ae53-439a-bf01-15349d8573d3 DisplayFusion Hi

So I have the following setup:

1 = 27" 1080p via Displayport to HDMI
2 = 22" 1080p via Displayport to HDMI
3 = Receiver to 1080p TV via HDMI

I have the following three profiles I want to create

1 - Default

Monitors 1 & 2 are enabled, 3 is disabled.
1 is the primary display
sound is coming from my sound card to my pc speakers via normal audio connections

2 - PC & TV

All displays are enabled
1 is the primary display, 3 is cloned with 2
Sound is coming from GPU to my receiver via HDMI

3 - TV only

Only monitor 3 is enabled
Sound is coming from my GPU to my receiver via HDMI

I can set up these profiles but when I switch between them I get error messages and monitor 3 does not disable when switching to the default profile.

The error message when switching from "TV only" to "Default":

An error has occurred while applying your new Monitor configuration.
Please check your settings and try again.

I tried to find a solution here on the forums but had no luck.

Does anyone know how I can ensure monitor 3 disables and my profiles switch correctly? ]]>
