Oculus did pick the right display device for DK2

//EDIT// Studied the forum and got over my portrait mode problem, using extended OK now and looking forward to direct mode applications. Using Virtual Desktop now, very excellent work. ---------...

Thanks, hopefully future firmware and runtime releases will make the phone display work like a plug and play monitor so that we can simply use clone display mode instead of 4 steps.


The DK2 is not designed to work in `clone` monitor mode- its direct-to-rift or extended monitor.

Under extended monitor, the DK2 comes up as a normal monitor in windows, extended and rotated to landscape- I have only had to do this once and every time the Rift is turned on, its all set up ready to go- so it is `plug and play`.

I can't even get direct-to-rift to work and that is also plug and play without any of the rotating, extending or anything else.

Forget clone mode, that is old hat now.
