Hi, I did you both your recent Essentials videos, i am wanting to get Visual Pinball working properly before I go any further, I had backglass and play table working fine at one point, could never get the DMD to preposition in the dmddevice.ini what ever number i put it did nothing stays the same, and now I am not sure but my back glass will no longer shows, I been banging my head against the wall ever since I followed your videos and cant seem to figure it out, only been messing with two table scared stiff and attack from mars, they are playable, but no black glass and the DMD not fitting correctly. I hate asking for help, I like to try and figure things on my own, I really want to learn though.

Right-click on the DMD and pick "show borders" from the menu.
Use the borders to stretch the DMD display the way you like it.
Then, exit the table.
The next time you run the table, the borders will be off and the DMD will be the size you want.

For the DMD
Are you Adjusting this file dmddevice.ini from the VPinMame
If you are able to do this that means you are not using frenzy.. --> Right-click on the DMD and pick "show borders" from the menu.
For the BackGlass
3 Screen set-up and more

I have read where people had to unplug the monitors and re-plug Them back in one the time...
They even said that they had to reboot the computer every time they plug another one in...

Ok started all over followed Terryed videos again, black glass perfect now, play field perfect, DMD, same problem, Its located in the same place as my pics above. I used the dmddevice.ini to get the DMD off the playfield to the 3rd screen, however i can not right click on it, nothing happens. I can move the dmd with mouse, when I do its gets huge, overlaps on oever screens, I exit, returns to same spot on 3rd screen. Thanks for you help guys by the way, much appreciated! I must be doing something worn on this DMD part.

The more I play with it the more i am learning, I read a lot more and seen some videos, I think I might have figured it out, the DMD is bigger now, I just need some finishing touches. I know i am close!
