There seems to be a bug with the fullscreen view when changing display settings within either the AMD Catalyst Control Center or NVidia Control Panel.

I was working on changing some settings on the output screen to enhance the picture quality and clicked apply to change the settings. This somehow changed the fullscreen to go to output 1 instead of output 2. I restarted vMix and had the fullscreen was still on output 1. So I changed the output to screen 3 and it then displayed correctly on output 2. Not liking that I had to have it set on output 3, I fiddled with some settings to finally correct the issue. The trick that seemed to correct the issue was to set display 2 as the primary monitor in windows and then back to 1. This seemed to reset the issue.

I'm not a programmer by nature, so I am not sure if that would be a windows bug or a vMix bug.

I haven't experience a scenario like that in any other software. What software has that happened to you in?

That problem is caused with the drivers from the video card and windows....Check all the sites below....you should get the help you want....

From the site below:

Access Windows' screen settings by right clicking on the desktop and selecting "Screen resolution", or typing "adjust screen resolution" in the Start menu search box. Click the "Identify" button to throw up numbers on each screen to identify them and then drag and drop them to match your current arrangement.P

Check "Make this my main display" on the monitor you want to be your main display—the main taskbar and Start menu will appear here, as well as the initial run of most application windows. All of your monitors should have "Extend desktop to this display" selected in the "Multiple displays" drop down menu. The only time you'll have to really spend any significant time fiddling in the display settings is if you have multiple but mismatched monitors—when I first started with multiple monitors I had a 17" and 15" and the mismatched sizes and resolutions was awkward at best. (Though you can also fix the "cursor drift" problem by tweaking one setting here).

I don't think I explained myself correctly.

I am only running 2 monitors.

In the vMix setting, there are 4 displays show for the Fullscreen option. When the issue happened, the secondary screen correctly identified as monitor 2. So the mismatch came between what windows said was monitor 2 and what vMix said it was outputting to monitor 2.

Sometimes turning off fullscreen and clicking it back on will move it back to the correct window. So with fullscreen enabled, it shows on monitor 1. I then click fullscreen to turn the feed off. I click it again and it then appears on monitor 2. This happens some of the time.
