I’m having several annoying symptoms with my 3 monitor setup that seem to only be related to Kodi. I am running Windows 10, Kodi Krypton 17.1, Aeon Nox skin, Dell IPS U2312 though displayport , Dell IPS U2410 through displayport, and a Samsung 4K 6400 series through an HDMI. Video card is EVGA 950 GTX SC 2.0.
Issue 1 – Kodi forgets what screen it is assigned to. I have it assigned to monitor 3 which is the Samsung, but it will randomly send the signal to monitor 2 on start up eventhough the Samsung is still set as #3, and Kodi is still assigned to open in #3. It doesn’t always do this but it happens eventually.
Issue 2 – Similar to issue to 1 but it will actually change the Kodi monitor assignments and get 2 and 3 mixed up. It has even gotten to the point that it changed the monitor assignments in Windows but that only happened once. Sometimes I have to assign kodi to open in #2 to get it to open in #3.
Issue 3 – pressing alt-enter or “\” actually increases the size until it covers multiple monitors. Reducing it again makes it jump from 3 to 2, then 2 to one. After a fresh boot and everything reset it doesn’t always do this but it will revert to this problem eventually.
Issue 4 – Monitor 2 will lose it’s resolution setting and revert to 640 x 480 with the option to change it greyed out. Restart fixes this automatically but it keeps happening.
Issue 5 – this one just happened and I haven’t figured out how to fix it yet. The icons from monitor #1 appeared on monitor #3 as if monitor 3 is the primary monitor. I did change 3 to primary monitor but I changed it back. The icons are back on monitor 1 and Kodi still opens to the correct monitor, but when I do something on monitor one it stops playing Kodi as if it thinks monitor 3 is the primary. I can’t get this reset and now I can’t use my computer to do anything else while Kodi is running. Can anyone offer any advice? Thank You…
***Update*** I fixed problem 5 by turning on (-Use Fullscreen Window) after I read the description about multi monitors. Ironically enough I thought it was this setting that caused the first problem I had with the monitor assigments. I fixed the 1st problem I had by turning this off, now I’m fixing it by turning it on. This is frustrating. If I don’t figure this out my girlfriend is gonna make me go back to the Amazon Firestick for Kodi. Please help me stop that from happening.
