I have four monitors in twinview. Combined desktop resolution is 5200x2640. When I start Big Picture Mode, sometimes it seems to be rendering at 5200x2640 but only displaying on one monitor, so I only see a portion of the BPM window (screenshot 1). If I minimize and then restore BPM, it starts rendering at the correct resolution (screenshot 2). When I turn on my Steam Link and connect to the host, I only see the partial BPM and have to walk to the office and do the minimize/restore.

It happens again every time I launch a game from BPM and then close the game. (3rd screenshot)
