  1. HDMI: Two Independent Rotations Snag


    I purchased a second monitor so that I could have one in Landscape frame and one in Portrait frame. The HDMI splitter that I purchased replicates only one orientation. It does not provide for independent rotation of a second other monitor. With the splitter in- line Windows Display Settings only sees one monitor. I only have one HDMI port on my computer.

    I am able to keep one monitor vertical and one horizontal by feeding the second through the VGA port. That of course vastly diminishes the sharpness in the second monitor.

    Does anybody know of an app or black-box of some sort that will allow me to independently control the rotations of two HDMI monitors through one HDMI output port?

    Thanks for any thoughts or guidance.

    :)

    Why exactly is ATi considered be better at HDMI?

    I plug my HDMI cable into the card, then into my TV. Those are the steps that I have to do. All the steps you list make absolutely no sense to me.

    Really needed to list more system specs and information on this issue.So this is assuming you have this and this is the issue.

    Why does my screen not rotate?


    The auto rotation lock feature is turned on by default in Windows 10. Use the following steps to turn off this feature.

    1. Place the tablet into Pad/Tablet mode.
    2. Click the Start
