      Re: RetroPie using dual monitors

      Hello, I'm trying to get my Raspberry Pi 4 with RetroPie to output to dual monitors using the Raspberry Pi 4's dual HDMI output. I'd like this to mirror across two identical displays for an arcade cocktail cabinet I'm working on. How can I do this? Or should I buy an HDMI splitter?

          @iandaemon Not exactly. An arcade cocktail table and I installed dual monitors in them with a Raspberry Pi 4. My plan B is to use a VGA or HDMI splitter but I'd like to see if can be done with the dual HDMI outputs already available on the Raspberry Pi 4. Any ideas?
