Title: shortcut for enabling/disabling tv output?(v3tv)
Post by: ps47 on 28 February 2004, 18:16:29
I have been thinking about this a bit..the tv out enable/disable is just a value in the registry,right?so,would it be possible to create a shortcut or perhaps a batch file that enables or/and disables the tv out "on the fly" by running that file?something like the "set FX_GLIDE_AA_SAMPLE=x" batch file setting I use so often to controll fsaa for particular apps,something like "set tv_out_enable=x"..?

ok,I have found the reg value that needs to be changed in order to turn on the tv-out.see the pic:

so..is it be possible to change the 0 to 1 by running a correct batch file or some other way perhaps..?

is a reboot required (or something else) to get the change noticed?

if not, you could export the reg key to a file, once with a enabled value of "1" and once with zero and than just import the one you need. get the idea?

another way is to prog a little app that changes the value of the key, this way you could even assign shortcuts to it...

its really easy to export the reg key,
anyway, i made the reg files you need.

hope they work, double klick and a "yes" should do it :)
you can even a assign a key-shortcut to these if you make a shortcut to them ;)

here they are:
