[this video] I imagine tl;dr being: nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="HDMI-0:3840x2160_30 +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }" HDMI-0:3840x2160_30 is part to change, HDMI-0 from xrandr

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04.06 LTS with two 1920x1080 monitors connected (one over HDMI and another over DVI). I have terrible vertical screen tearing on both of the monitors. There are many helpful videos which address vertical tearing with a single monitor, but none for more than one: [this video] [LINK] Solutions are very similar, and involve configuring the NVIDIA settings with the ForceFullCompositionPipeline enabled. The following solution works for a single monitor ONLY : nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }" Can anyone suggest how to apply this fix simultaneously to both monitors?
