I wanted to post this setup...  I currently have triple displays running on a 3090 without using Nvidia Surround...  In DCS - there is an option as you are well aware which allows native triple screen support...  This works great..  The cockpit view is oriented correctly..  No distortions, or funky stretching present..  That being said..  I felt the need to get creative and wanted to incorporate MFDs to my flight-sim..   I have decided to use two Samsung 8 inch tablets to basically pull the MFDs functionality from the simulator onto the tablets.  To make this possible - I came across a software called "DSC Device Server"...  This software can push MFD info via wireless/bluetooth to the tablets; and the tablets in-turn will have an app to recv these images...

 

So that's the premise..  Now onto the problem..  When connecting the tablets as MFDs using DCS Device Server.  The software sets the DCS game monitor settings to "Device Works".  When this happens - I loose my Triple Screen Support....  Which defeats the purpose.  

Now to tackle this issue - from another angle - I have decided to use the Nvidia Surround so that the video card can treat the triple screens as one logical display... In theory bypassing triple screen support within DCS and being able to have the "Device Works" setting being selected...  

 

Now this gave me a different issue..  While in DCS - the Nvidia Surround  made my video shifted way off to the left...  My right most screen is blank..  The middle screen has half video and the left screen has full video..  However the logical view is shifted far left.. So my questions:

 

1.  Has anyone successfully used triple screens w/o nvidia surround while using DCS Device Server with tablets?

2. Has anyone successfully used triple screens with nvidia surround while using DCS Device Server with tablets?

3. If "Yes" for question #2 - how do you fix the video shift issue - is there configuration files in the game that needs adjustment?

4. Or is it possible to do what I am doing with Triples?

 

 

Sorry for the long winded description - but I wanted to be as descriptive as possible.. Any feedback will help.

 

Regards
