Is there a command line option to start gb-pvr in windowed or fullscreen mode? I'm using three different configurations to startup the program.
1. Minimized (windowed) on primary monitor w/350 hardware output.
2. Minimized (windowed) on primary monitor w/software output, w/full-screen overlay mirror on secondary monitor (TV).
3. Normal (fullscreen) on TV (TV set to primary, LCD set to off) w/software ouput.
The first setting is when I'm feeling confident the 350 drivers won't lockup on me. :o The second setting is when I want to use the program to watch livetv or a recording on the TV, and have the PC usuable as the primary monitor (one problem with this mode is only video is mirrored on the TV, not the gb-pvr menu and overlays, but I don't know a way around that). The third setting is when I can't afford the 350 output to crash and use software rendering, and when watching DVD's through gb-pvr.
I'm currently using three batch files that overwrite the config.xml file with one of the three predefined .xml files, and then starts gb-pvr with Ultramon to set my display priorities. I've searched the forums, but can't find a command line option to start the program in fullscreen or windowed mode. Is this possible at this time?
