Ironman273 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I know they're unrelated but I figured I'd save an extra thread. I have a Surface 3 that I use with an external monitor at work. It's always shown different wallpapers from the same theme on each screen. When I decided to change the theme I noticed there were "dual monitor" specific themes with extra wide wallpapers. I enabled one but I still get 2 different wallpapers per screen. What am I doing wrong? I have an Xbox Music Pass and stream pretty much whatever I want. I saw Guardians of the Galaxy and liked the soundtrack so I looked it up and the only option is to buy the album. This happens on my phone and Surface. Is some of the content locked for purchase only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I doing wrong? If you only care about the images (well, what else is in the theme, really?), you can download the .deskthemepack as a file, rename the extension to .rar, and extract as a normal archive. There will be a folder with the background images inside, and you can set them to as a background with Picture position Tile to get multi-monitor spanning.

Ironman273 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 I guess my issue must be the different resolutions. My desktop monitor is 1080p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Veteran Posted August 11, 2014 Veteran Share Posted August 11, 2014 The streaming music vs. purchase is up to the artist and/or publisher. Led Zeppelin's albums are purchase-only, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
