Used to display info on a second screen

http://www.hyperspin...lay-controller/


Features:

- Will display game / controls information on a secondary display
* Displays logos for system, game, genre, and rating
* Displays actions for each button if available (mame, but could work with others following same format)
* Displays primary control (4 way, 8 way, steering, spinner, etc)

- Makes sure all windows stay in place going into and out of emulators so there is no screen shifting (some emulators cause this today)

- Removes the taskbar whenever hyperspin starts (and restores it when it closes). This is for folks not running fullscreen.

- Primarily using assets already present in hyperspin. No dual maintenance of files / art when possible.

- Runs in system tray. Automatically shows when HS launches and hides when HS closes.

- Shows a "please select game" / splash graphic when between games.

- Display marquee images on screen above main screen

I have been working with this program for the better part of a day.  It has been relatively easy so far. I have one problem. I only have two folders on my FE Mame and Daphne. Mame works just fine but when I launch Daphne the marquee image on the second screen disappears. If I use the windows key to toggle in and out of the program it will return and stay like it's supposed to and when I exit Daphne the HS screen's resolution is messed up even though the resolutions all match. Any advice would be helpful, thanks in advance.

Is it recommended to use this, or hypermarquee?  I'd like video and it seems HM is not supporting that, but neither of these seem to be updated very often.  Good sign or bad?

Yep.  I blame a bad sleep and worse reading comprehension.

hi there,

 

i havd HSH installed and it launches just fine.  launching HSH launches hyper spin and the marquee is the default generic “arcade classics”

problem is when starting a game, it’s still the default marquee that shows.

any help is appreciated
