RainwayApp
Multimonitor support
Hey there @marcschroeder, can you give us some more info?
You should be able to select a display to stream a game from under Settings → Hardware → Display on the Rainway Dashboard.
Is it that you'd like to use Remote Desktop and see all three of your home monitors *at once*? Or would you like there to be a way to switch between monitors from the client?
If you're using something like an Eyefinity setup, it should work with that out of the box since all the monitors are treated as one. What exactly are you asking for?
Hey, thanks for your reply. I would like to use it with 3 monitors at the same time. I haven't tried eyefinity, but I will give it a try.
Out of curiosity, are all three to remote a specific game or you are interested in remoting a multi-monitor setup in general such as, for example, a game on primary and then the other two showing auxiliary stream not necessarily related to the game. Trying get a better idea of use case.
Also from technical perspective this might be a bit hard to do due to objective limitation. Some video hardware has a limit for just one encoded stream, other for two. In some cases it could be possible to merge streaming into joint encoded stream, provided that geometry/resolutions match, in other cases it does not make sense. In some cases different monitors could be handled by different GPUs and even though theoretically possible, it's hard to wrap it into simple and easy to use setup with friendly config.
I would use them for everyday work, as well as gaming. Right now I use rdp for multimotor and parsec for gaming. I would like to switch to one software for both use cases.
I would like to be able to switch between monitors from the client using remote desktop functionality.
A simple button to swap monitors while in an active rainway session would be great for me, perhaps in the side menu?
