Hi there!
I can't make Dolphin fullscreen on my external monitor.
Even if I configure it for 'HDMI-0', which is my external HD television,
it still starts on my workstation monitor which is the primary display
for my desktop.
Dolphin.ini:
[Display]
FullscreenResolution = HDMI-0: 1920x1080
Fullscreen = True
RenderToMain = False
RenderWindowXPos = -1
RenderWindowYPos = -1
RenderWindowWidth = 640
RenderWindowHeight = 480
What am I doing wrong??
Thanks for the support,
Beauman
Do I need to install additional software to get this working?

Not really you could also just install comwiz settings and set whatever desktop screen u want stuff to launch in and or follow mouse. follow mouse will just open it in whatever window the mouse happens to be in.

But why is Dolphin not accepting the display configuration from the ini-file? This file is clearly stating both monitor name and its resolution. What is wrong with that?
Something is missing here. I noticed requests for external monitor support go way back until 2009 or earlier. If this is a bug, is there a bug ticket for this? Or, probably more likely, am I doing something wrong here? What could that be?
I should mention I'm using the github version of dolphin, tagged 4.0.2. I've uploaded it to my PPA here:
https://launchpad.net/~beauman/+archive/.../+packages . I am working on integrating Dolphin into a larger suite of emulators.
Display and resolution selection is done further down the software stack and works on the configuration files of dolphin.
I've been debugging this now.
It appears, that dolphin is calculating the position correctly:

But it still fullscreens on the wrong monitor. Could that be a driver problem? I'm using the proprietary OpenGL driver from Nvidia.
Hello!
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04, upgraded to the latest software. And Nvidia binary driver 331.38.
By the way, we are looking for Beta testers! Our emulator suite is already quite large, it nicely integrates with XBMC, and a so called Rom Collection Browser which fetches gaming artwork. We are looking for feedback, if you encounter any issues you could post them here:
https://github.com/ProfessorKaos64/RetroRig/issues .
To install it, refer to
https://github.com/ProfessorKaos64/RetroRig. You want to check out 'Ubuntu-14.04-Beta'. Do you have a dual-monitor setup by any chance? We provide a custom made version for mednafen (NES,SNES,Genesis,PS1,..) that provides support for this. Plus mupen64plus (N64) and a special branch of XBMC, which also support dual monitors.
