Possible tearing solution

I posted this in the tearing poll thread, but just thought I'd throw it out here and see if it helps anyone else....

I got rid of all my VMR9 tearing issues by making my projector the primary monitor instead of the secondary one on my 9700pro and making sure vertical sync was enabled. The projector is hooked up via a dvi-component dongle and I use the latest drivers from ATi's web site. I run a custom powerstrip resolution of 1200x675 anchored in a 1280x720 timing at 60hz.

Now I get the video tearing on my computer monitor and no tearing at all on the projector where I actually watch my movies. Seems that the video card gives horsepower priority to the primary monitor.

Doesn't matter what decoders I use as long as they can interface with VMR9 - I have my overlay in my cat control panel set to 'same on all'.

Hope this helps.

Joel
