but no "widescreen" as this :/ only those usual ones. btw do you have a name on this monitor so I can search it on other sites?

Look into HDMI ribbon cables, ones where you can switch the ends. So if you want it to be Micro on end or 90* bend. I have a normal 7" touchscreen installed in what was previously a 7" portable DVD player. I cut out the back of the monitor, Basically it's an adjustable frame/stand, the pi4 hangs off the back. The 7" screen I bought had an audio circuit. I replaced the speakers with ones salvaged from a laptop. It is basically a sub notebook. I choose the bluetooth keyboard for the scenario, but I have a Logitech keyboard and trackball that work on one dongle. Anyway I use drill batteries to power it on the go. It is a full desktop with Retropie, also runs Android for movies, Anything, anywhere, with a cellphone hotspot. Also built the same into a Boombox... better for movies, plays cassettes as well. Ended up making both devices after my Piboy DMG made me think about dimensions I'd prefer. All that to say I agree. This screen will split people. I got lucky scored my 7" screen for $27 shipped. The fact that it's taller doesn't get in the way or ruin anything. I can set my 7" 1024x600 in front of 2 other monitors and see over it, so I can game and internet and movie/tv all at once. Still intrigues the hell out of me, I want one of these wide screens!

Plenty of them in AliExpress.

Did you take down the link for the monitor and replace it with the alternatives? What if somebody wants this monitor years later when it isn't sold out anymore? Can you provide the link for the monitor shown in this video?

Agreed, I've tried doing that sort of thing as well. It works, but not as well as if it has audio / video connected directly

I have a 34 inch with a 27 inch in portret mode next to it but still I would like something like this to monitor my pc temps. Tried that with a 11,5 monitor but that was to big for my taste. There are monitors for that but you should expect some dedicated apps for something like this

You can use iPad (even the old one mini) as a. second monitor.

you gave me some good ideas on what to do with it!! thanks!!

This is a great idea.

Agreed! Came here for the Car Thing video and have clicked the notification bell. I really wanna see where this channel goes.

Glad you are enjoying the videos, and thanks for the feedback! I've used gimbals for phones but not for my camera rig, it may be time to pick one up!

@@WorkFromHype Haha yea no problem. If you pick one, I wouldn't mind if you would make a video about it that you do not have to pay that much haha

What mini monitor did you go with, I am looking for something nice to use with discord.

Probably the first actual use that isn't a 100% gimick.

yours is the same mini monitor or is another model?

@@lucyferzyr mine is the same dimensions but a different brand. The one I got is from a brand called Waveshare. They make lots of different sizes and form factors.

I do exactly this with serato and Traktor

Hold on to that girlfriend.

I feel the same, I've actually thought to myself before this video that I wanted a smaller second screen like this for the exact same use cases but the form factor is still a bit small.

Buy 3 or even 4 😁

Ohh i get the joke 🤣

.... "That's what she said"

Thanks dude!

You can actually still move them, I found out after friend showed me and I was surprised. You need to highlight and right click window in task bar and there will be hidden option to drag/move, click on it and instantly click left click to drag window without moving mouse. It should have this dragging cursor and move window wherever you want.

Like Catpaws commented there is also a way to handle this in Linux. I recall having this issue on Thunderbird email client the auto set up wizard put the Ok/ Cancel buttons below the viewable screen on several installations such that I had to use tab and guess where the focus of the buttons were, and press enter to continue. The good news is there is a relatively simple, like control + shift + click on the window which allows the mouse to be dragged off the screen taking the dialogue box with it which would reveal the hidden buttons. The bad news is I can't remember if the control + shift + click is the right combination ! but there is a way to handle this.

I really like that idea... I could mount this next to my preview window in Premiere and have a dedicated multi track audio monitoring window! Overkill? Maybe, but it also sounds too good not to try!

@@WorkFromHype only flaw I see with that might be if you need to get into the postTrack effects panel or something like that, but audio levels for sure! Would love it is you could mount the Loudness Rader/Meter outside of opening the effect itself. Could be neat to have that perma running. Scopes for color correction might work out, especially if you have one a /little/ less widescreen and a hair taller!

Install an app on your tablet (spacedesk) to use it as a second desktop monitor. Also, install the spacedesk server on your pc - job done

What is that keyboard? Model?

@@WorkFromHypeWhat is that keyboard in video? Model?

Can people get one of these and rig it to only display closed-captioning dialogue in movies? Someone smarter than me could probably monetize that idea...

I was thinking the same while watching the video.

Welcome to the channel!! The icon pack is called LineX.

@@WorkFromHype Tight! Thank you.

Using Windowless mode actually neatly avoids that isse - you don't tab out if you do any inputs anywhere else

Check out the Stream Deck

If you have a small desk, stacking your monitors vertically is a great solution. You can have two matching monitors that only take up the desk space of one.
