Im on a dual monitor set up using flame. When I try and go full screen on my viewing player, the second monitor becomes viewing scopes. As im on a cloud set up these animating scopes affect the playback of the footage. Does anyone know how to disable or pause these scopes so I can get smooth playback in full screen? ---

Unfortunately not. This adds the footage onto the second monitor as well. Ideally what I need it black on the second monitor when entering full player screen. Or something that doesnt animate ---

If you go into your scope presets, you can change the update mode to ‘no update’. In that mode the scopes only update when you make changes, but remain frozen during playback. That may suite your use case well - allowing scopes to work, but not take up remote screen bandwidth during playback. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/thedepartmentofexternalservices/original/2X/b/bd703c567a11e450c89bd36d557222834e599386.png) ---
