    I'm not sure if you want to mirror your TV screen that is displayed by the computer on the monitor, or want to watch the TV shows on your computer monitor as well. For the first, you can mirror the screens and each will show exactly the same thing, but you can not watch the TV on your computer unless you actually add a TV tuner card to the computer, thus adding TV as a function and no longer needing the TV at all..

    All I can think of is a monitor with picture-in-picture. Some have this, but most do not. The Asus VE278Q 27" has it, for instance.

    What would be the point of that and what are you trying to accomplish with your setup? Either mirror the displays or extend them. There is no app that specifically does what you want because there is no point to having it.

    Basically, an app that shows what is on the other monitor. Any suggestions will help. Thank you.
