How can i mirror display but with different resolutions?

Asked by crikeyhosting in Mac OS 10.3 (Panther), Projectors, Apple Display Monitors

Im trying to mirror the display of a MAC Pro running OSX10.3.8, signal goes to a HD Cinema display 22" at 1900x1200 resolution, and also goes out to a epson data projector (out 2nd video output). I want to have mirrored output BUT alter the resolution of the projection as 1900x1200 on the projection is very hard to read, i want it down to 1024x768. Changing the resolution for the projector output shrinks the viewing area on the monitor dramatically..

Only way i can use independent resolutions is to not mirror the display, however that means i have to drag windows over to the projector to view (this is for a studio/classroom setup) which is no good.  Is there a piece of software to enable me to mirror and use different resolutions but still mirror the signal? I've looked at video scalers but they're way too expensive..   Any ideas?Start Free Trial
