Dreaming on Dual Monitors?

Is it possible to make a Dream file play across dual monitors as one?

Sunday, March 18, 2007 by aart12 | Discussion: Stardock Support General

Just wondering if it is possible to get a Dream animation to play across dual monitors as one, instead of two instances... or if this is something that needs to be added to Dream Maker...

yeah, im doing it right now. you wont have a problem (just make sure your monitors are set at the same resolution)........right now there are just single-monitor dreams and people are going to have to start making dreams that reach the full potential of dual monitor setups..........i would personally LOVE to see some good dreams in 2560x1024

The cpu usage of a video with a resolution of 2560x1024 would be considerable.

yeah....but it would look MUCH better than having two videos running side by side, especially when taking screenshots, the viewer wouldnt know where one desktop begins and the second one ends...

I have bought the Liquid dream and I am having fun with it. I have dual monitor on vista Ultimate 32. I have several wallpapers that are 2560x1024. Having them this size, I end up with one image displayed on two monitors. I hate seeing the same wallpaper on the two screens. Reading in the forum, trying to understand dynamic dreams. When I read I could put my own wallpaper with the liquid dream, I assumed that I would end up with one wallpaper and have the liquid dream on top giving a mirror evect to my wallpapers. I guessed I assume wrong. I und up with the same image on both monitors. Even if I play with the tile option in the dream. If you guys have any ideas, if their is something I can do or tweak, please tell me.

Is this not actually a limitation of dreamscene? Personally this is a big let down for me.

I also use dual monitors and really wish dreamscene/dreamscapes actually supports true dual monitor usage.
