This page covers putting a playout full screen on another display. For a hall screen, a foyer monitor or a projector hanging off the second output of the graphics card. No extra hardware, no network.
The setting
Settings → Outputs, kind Screen / projector, then Which screen.
The playout appears full screen on that display, without a title bar and without any of the program’s interface.
Straight from the panel
You can also send a playout to a screen without changing its output: right-click its monitor panel → Full screen on monitor.
That is the quick route during setup — put it on the beamer, check the framing, take it off again — while the output setting is the one that survives a restart.
What the status bar says
The block shows screen 2 and nothing else. There is no frame counter.
The engine render lag on the left of the status bar does cover this picture, so that is the figure to watch if it stutters.
If somebody closes the window, the block says window closed — which is the one failure this output has, and it is usually a person rather than a fault.
Practical notes
Set Windows up first. The display has to be extended, not mirrored, and at the resolution you intend. A projector that Windows thinks is 1280×720 gives you that, whatever the canvas says.
Screen numbering follows Windows. If the numbers do not match what you expect, it is the Windows display arrangement that decides, and that is where to fix it.
Scaling comes from the canvas. The playout is built at the canvas size and scaled to the display — see canvas and frame rate.
Nothing stops the screensaver by itself. For a display that must stay on all day, switch off sleep and screensaver in Windows.
