outputting video to tv etc

I have the new version a (3.0) with vid plug in included and - without the essential manual which is sadly missing - I cannot figure out how to output video to my tv (I do not have a projector, I presume this does not make a difference), the only way seems to be to hit the tv icon on the menu bar which brings up vid full screen on the tv but the mixing window disappears altogether. I have watched the demo which shows a jock djing with full video going on so I assume it can be done. Can anyone advise please ???

:cool: not shure what your set up is ,, i have a installed vid card with multiple outputs ,so in my video set up i use the second screen for the main vid out put and can either put it to my hdmi tv or my vga monitor ,, :cool:
i think one alternative would be to have a laptop with a additional hdmi out to get the second monitor ,, :cool:
soo system set up info will help us in figuring out the options avaible too you :cool:

That sounds like it works for you, but its all a bit complicated - is that what the "manual" is likely to instruct me to do ??

:cool: asked for info to your set up ,, your post says you have connected to your tv but only shows what the laptop screen shows ,,
does you computer have a vid card control panel ,in order to change what you have coming out of the vid port ,, :?:
as far as the manual ,,not to shure if its been updated ,, :evil:

As Daniel mentions it is hard to advice on little info.
It seems your PC(laptop/mac) has not been setup to use 2 screens, or it has been setup for duplicating one screen to the other.
It should have 2 seperate screens setup("extended"). See tech details in Daniels reply.
After you changed this restart Cross and likely your problem is solved.
