Re: [Elementary-dev-community] TV Display Not Detected
Thanks Sergey, I'm sure it'll be possible to do with After Effects. So the second problem is still unsolved. Can anyone help me solve the lag issue with my graphics card? Thanks!

I went back and re watched the video (and many others) a few times and noted that during the parts where things are zoomed in, there are very little animations. As you can see here: http://youtu.be/kcOUWjkGBUY?t=38s, it's mostly made of very simple UI with a hovering cursor and a key press. I think we can do the same thing here, since we have so many great designers. Anyway, I already have an idea of how things would go in the video. Hopefully, I can get this recording thing to work and make a quick draft. I think it's going to be a killer video!

The resolution of those might be really high, but the interface elements will always be the same size in pixels.

Okay, will do that tomorrow. But I have something school work that I must take care now. Cassidy, worst case scenario, we'll get you to do the recordings and I'll just put them together ha! Just out of curiousity, does anyone here have Macbook Pro, Thunderbolt display, or a 4k TV? If you do, we must get you to do the recording! Because with any one of those, we can zoom in two or three times without getting fuzzy images.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] TV Display Not Detected
According to xrandr, your second display does not exist. You can disable your drivers using jockey-gtk, it should already be installed, just put that in a Terminal and it will launch. Then try configuring the monitor as well as xrandr -q again.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] TV Display Not Detected
I know the UX of that Ubuntu Displays plug can be confusing... And this sounds like a "duh" thing but I overlooked it all the time: is the little "mirror" check box on the right checked? If so, uncheck that. ;) On Feb 27, 2013 6:36 PM, "Cody Garver" wrote: > Uninstall your proprietary drivers and see what happens, at least > regarding the lag.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] TV Display Not Detected
Uninstall your proprietary drivers and see what happens, at least regarding the lag. I have a little experience with xrandr and dual monitors, what does this output when your tv is plugged in?: xrandr -q This is a very strange case if your tv is HDMI and not working automatically.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] TV Display Not Detected
Also, when I start the recording, my computer suddenly becomes really slow, with lots of stuttering and slow animations, despite being a fairly well-rounded computer with core i7 and 6GB ram. For my earlier video that I made a few months ago, I recorded with a very old, $200 computer I bought from Ebay, and everything was as smooth as butter. I'm not sure what's going on.
