3D TV as secondary display
Hello. I have linked my Geforce 550Ti to 2 displays : my computer monitor 27" 2D only linked by the DVI. This is supposed to be my primary display. my samsung 3D HDTV 55" linked by the mini HDMI. This is my secondary display. I don't care playing games in 3D, only movies, using my samsung TV. the issue is that , the 3dTV detects my samsung TV ONLY if it's set as the primary display. If I switch my 2D monitor to primary as I would like to for obvious reasons, then 3dTV doesn't detect the 3D capable TV ... How can I fix this ? Thx

I just change primary monitors whenever I use 3d. Currently I use shortcuts to ultramon profiles, I believe the same can be done with displayfusion.

There's nothing to fix unfortunately. As Pirateguybrush said, you have to temporarily change the TV to be the primary display to use it in 3D. That's just the way it works.

It's fucking retarded if you ask me. I've been struggling for days with those nvidia silliness. I was about to change for AMD but then I tried tridef which is even worse ... It's something they could easily fix ...
