Photo Submission Canon EOS Utility "issue"
Hello! I have been struggling with one specific "issue" for about a week now and could not figure it out, so please give me any advice or if someone have been there: HELP :(
Here is the setup- 1 laptop(primary screen) and 1 external monitor(Smart TV) connected via HDMI in extended mode. Lets say the second monitor is meant for youtube music/podcast. The camera is Canon 70D(Wi-Fi). Connecting automatically when turned on with laptop (Canon EOS Utility). It opens DPP app and the main control app(that one tiny window with camera settings, etc.). I want to grab the camera>point>shoot...>...>... quick review. It opens almost instantly on second monitor(jpeg format) with Quick Review, but on minimized window.To fix this temporarily, I have to go to the laptop, maximize the window, and then every subsequent shot appears in fullscreen. However, the problem occurs when I turn off the camera—the apps close automatically (as they should). After that, when I turn the camera back on and take another photo, the Quick Review window is minimized again.I would love for the image to open in fullscreen automatically, but I have to maximize it manually every single time I restart the apps (by turning the camera on/off).
Pls if you have any idea how to force it to be fullscreen let me know. I am open to trying even HDMI dongles, TV is Smart TV and searched that it may transfer the picture a.k.a same result but different pathway.
