How to run two lcd at the same time

Post by blueyes29 »

Hello,

For starters, I'm french so sorry in advance if my sentences have a weird sense;), I installed your program and I succeeded to run one of my two lcd, but the other does not, how do I have to configure Lcd Smartie?

Thank you.

Hi,
probably the easiest way i to run two separate copies of LCD Smartie in two separate folders.

Hi LCD Smatie supports command line arguments

Supported commands:
  • -hide: On startup, minimise to the system tray.
  • -totalhide: On startup, disappear! but remain running in the background.
  • -config [filename]: Name of config file to use; config.ini by default. [example: -config config2.ini]
If you use the -config [filename] under a shortcut you can have a second configuration file in the same folder and get advantage of the same plugins, skins folders.
The parameter should be passed on the target field on a windows shortcut.
Example "C:\LCD Smartie\LCDSmartie.exe" -config configmatrix.ini (this loads the program getting the configuration form configmatrix.ini file)
