Advanced output to output monitor

I'm just setting up a project for a building we have done mapping on a few times now using R4 Ave and Mapio and I cant find a way to make the advanced output preview (i.e. the mapped/warped output) in the output monitor in R6 Arena :/

I'm sure it's a tick box some place but I just cant find it, any help out be awesome :)

I think you're missing a word so I'm not sure what you're asking.

There is no such tick box.

If you have some spare performance you could to the mapping in a virtual screen, then use this virtual screen as the input of a single slice in screen 2 which you send to your output, and in screen 3 you have another slice with the same input and send this Screen to spout/syphon (or NDI).
Then from there either bring it back as source, or use an spout/syphon(/NDI) monitor app.
NDI is the one that requires the most resources.

@Oaktown Not sure how else to explain it so Ive added a picture, I want the advanced output to show in the "output monitor" window within R6.

@Zoltan Will give that a shot, the best I managed so far is to copy the output slices and send it using spout to another layer and use the preview monitor but that disappears often when I click on layers etc.

How many screens are you using?

We are using a laptop to output to a dualhead2go to 2 projectors in this instance but I think I've worked out a solution using the video router and multiple screens in the advanced output, one outputting to spout and the other inputting from spout and outputting to the projectors.
