Short:
How do I change the window color when mirroring a window (specifically games, the original window is black)?
Also, how do I hide the mouse cursor from the mirrored window? Any C# script snippets available for that?

Long:
Hey guys,

Huge thank you for this software - it solved a bunch of issues I'm having while streaming UWP games (they don't like capture software at all). I can use DisplayFusion to mirror the game to another monitor output, which then spits the video to a capture card and I can keep playing with my normal resolution (which the capture card doesn't like). Just awesome.

Only couple of issues I'm having >>



The color of the mirrored window is always white and looks pretty goofy if I want to show the full image from my main monitor uncropped (it's 2.40:1 and the stream is 16:9). This is easily solved in the receiving end in OBS by adding black masks but
I would love to have a software solution so that I don't need to tick those masks on and off everytime I switch the aspect ratio.

The mouse is also mirrored - I read a support discussion where this was added in the past versions, but I was curious if there was a way to hide the mouse cursor from the mirrored window - with games it's not at all necessary. : )

Anyhoo, kudos for this software, you don't even know how many performance problems it solved! o/

Thanks for the kind words! There isn't a way to change the background colour or disable the mouse cursor right now, but I've put these requests for options on our feature request list. We'll be sure to let you know if/when we're able to implement them :)

Thanks!

Excellent, the window color is not important, but the mouse cursor would be cool to get out of the way. : )

btw - Is it possible to get a 'hot' or beta build where the cursor on the copied window is disabled (not even sure if it IS possible)? I'm currently starting off my stream and struggling to hide the cursor so it doesn't sit in the middle of the screen, it's kind of hilarious :D

Haha, sorry, no we don't have a build with this option yet. I will let you know as soon as we do :)

Just wanted to follow-up and let you know that in the latest beta version of DisplayFusion the mirror window background is now black, and there's an Advanced Setting to disable the mouse cursor. You can download the latest beta version from the link below:
