    Splittler for the PFD & ND of the Captain and F/O

    I've been intending to use a Y splitter for the PFD and ND for the captains and copilots side so it only takes up one screen output and it does both sides of the mip.

    However a Y splittle will make an exact copy won't it? But the copilots side is a mirror image of the captains PFD and ND not exactly the same.

    I know people are using this Y Splitter idea, and when i first read about the idea i thought it was a good idea too until i realised the mip wouldn't actually be displayed correctly.

    Any thoughts...

    Geremy,

    If your video card has two outputs, you could try two instances of PM GC running on the same computer. There is a person or two who has done this; something about renaming the GC.exe (or PFD.exe) file to a different name and it'll work. Of course you still need the two video outputs...
