Cant get this to work at all. What gives? arnt i supposed to be able to select which display from the SR260/App?

Do I have my connections for TV/PJ/Display driver all go to the output of the AVR?

or do i just have the hdmi out for the driver go to the output of the AVR?

I assume your using the newer version?

You set the driver as the rooms Video End Point.

You set the 2 displays in the Display 1 and display 2 fields

You use custom buttons or Programming or a outside trigger to tell the driver which display is currently the real end point.

It works pretty good, but most of my clients do better wtih 2 separate "Rooms" "Media Room-TV" and "Media Room-Prj"

Two separate rooms works 100%.
The theater display driver usually works ok when it is configured correctly. The documentation tab lists all the info you need to get it working. I've setup several following the documentation without issue.

I just set it up in our demo system and it works fine. HDMI out of AVR into theater display driver. Assign TV and projector in driver Properties. Easy peasy. The screen control or monitoring is a nice feature as well.

I struggled the first time I used this driver and so I tested it at home and typed up an instruction sheet for myself. I knew I would have forgotten the details when I finally used it in a real project.

It seems to be working perfectly at the one install I have used it.

How were you intending to watch tv and watch projector if they were hidden from navigator?

I never even thought to go there to unhide them. Usually you have to go to hide stuff! Should be added to the documentation
