DMD not showing up, or massive and half off screen.

[damcanadian]

I've read through 10 or 20 other peoples problems and although they were different, I tried troubleshooting off the advice they were given, nothing have worked so far.

the issue is when I launch a table the DMD is ether viable for a second as the back glass covers it, or its huge, in the upper right have corner of the back glass (second) monitor.

The screens are aligned PF - BG, with the BG monitor not above the PF screen.
I have the table set to cabinet mode.
 

attached is a picture of one of the problems and my display setting for pinballx

Any help would be much appreciated and Ill get any pics or files requested as fast as I can for you.

Thanks.

Thanks and sorry about the delay, I was at work and wasn't able to test till now, It has the same issues in VP, tried turning off all those settings and the DMD is no longer large or in the corner, but it is still hidden, I can alt tab and see its running, and even the right size for the spot, but its ether behind the BG or on some non existent monitor.

When reporting an issue, it helps to attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files in your initial post without being asked. There may be something inside them that will help others help you quicker. If having a problem with tables, providing a copy of the xml for those tables may also prove helpful.

Also post your ScreenRes.txt file -  It is in the tables folder

Thanks, and I'm sorry, I saw everyone else posting them, and read the mandatory post before you post... post. was rushing to post before work and was a bit overloaded from trying to process everyone else fixes and see how to apply it to my own. all the files have been added to the first post.

The best thing to do is to get it working in VP 1st

[damcanadian]

that's one of the problems I fear I've caused, VP was working before I got into PBX, and then when trying to fix the issues there, I fear I messed up however I had VP working in the first place.

If you run from VP what problems are you having

been trying some more stuff, setdmd has fixed a few of the boards, but half a dozen are still having the same issue where the DMD loads on the second monitor, then the backglass loads over it, they all seem to be fullscreen tables that use directb2s for the backglass, though its not every one of those, as I have 3 or 4 that are the exact same setup(FS+DB2S files) that load fine with the DMD on top of the BG.

This occurs the exact same in both PBX and VP

Try Alt - Tab, can you bring the DMD to the front ...if yes take an move the dmd around some then put it in place and See if that helps

Do you have sambuild 3.1 on your cab ? 

When I had an older version, I had simular issues. (No issues now with real dmd  )

I can alt tab and see it, but it doesn't bring it to the front.

after updating the DMDs are in the correct spots for the most parts, minus 1, and I can alt tab to them to bring them to the front, but on table boot, both in VP and VBX the BG loads over the DMD every time.

[Draco1962]

Can you clarify that the BG loads over the DMD every time you load via VP or via PinballX? If the everytime in the first, then you have to resolve it in VP as there is nothing that can be done via PinballX.
