Enable 3rd monitor (connected to TV) for Steam Big Picture when the Xbox wireless adapter is connected.
My setup:
- 2 monitors connected via DisplayPort (1440p 165Hz and 4k 60Hz) -- extended desktop.
- receiver/TV connected via HDMI (4k HDR 120Hz) -- this display is disabled in display settings.
The problem:
Sometimes I just want to play on my TV. Having to enable the display corresponding to the TV. It's cumbersome.
The (possible) solution:
I'm still exploring feasibility of this solution:
- Detect if the Xbox wireless USB dongle is connected.
- Automate the disabling other screens and enabling only the receiver/TV. For that I'll be using MultiMonitorTool since I found in my extensive 5min research, a way to do it with PowerShell.
- Change audio output. For that I'll be using frgnca/AudioDeviceCmdlets
- Open Steam in Big Picture mode.
- Undo the display changes when the Xbox wireless USB dongle is unplugged.
