Hello,
We have a number of VMs running on an ESXi system and acces these from PCs with multiple monitors - usually two screens with 1920x1200 each.
We are not able to get the VM expanded to multiple monitors via the latest VMRC 10 (and all its predecessors).
Clicking the button to cycle monitors shows one of these messages.
Sorry for showing German language, only.
The first one - VMware ESXi does not support the use of multiple monitors in shared or remote VMs - I don't really understand.
The second one refers to the display settings. In the configuration of the virtual mashine both possible video settings - a fix number of two monitors as well as "host setting" - were tested.
Also 3D support was checked or unchecked. Always one of the shown messages is shown.
I guess the reference to VMware Player is a misstake.
Configuring two monitors in the guest system shows scroll bars in the VMRC window.
In the web I could not find any solution for this problem, yet.
The strange thing is, that the rather old "vmware-vmrc.exe" from a browser based access can show multiple monitors without problems.
That was a workaround till now and maks me believe that the host settings should be OK.
Any idea what can be done to make VMRC work - especially because vmware-vmrc.exe is nor working anymore on Win10?
Thanks!
