Full screen on 2nd Display--g450

[Dr.Schollz]

I'm using windows media player on my windows xp computer. I want to play a movie full screen on my 2nd display but, when I hit "Alt+Enter"(Full Screen) it dose full screen on my main display.
I did at one point in time have it set right to do this -- dose anyone know how I could get it workking again

P.S. I'm looking for a TV out cable if anyone has one they dont need or want or knows where i can get one lemme know

Sounds like DVDmax is what you are looking for. Enable it in the control panel.

i want the source video to be played on the 2nd display

[wkulecz]

That's what DVDmax does, the video plays in a window, not necessarily visible, on the primary monitor while the video plays full screen on the second display. Not all codecs work, but most do, DV, MPEG, PicVideo MJPEG are three I know about for sure.

This works with media player and Premiere. It doesn't always work with MSP because some play functions use WDM outputs which is where DVDmax hooks in, but others use VFW playback functions that don't work with DVDmax.
