Full screen on second monitor

xteve · 2006-09-17, 11:33

Hi,
1st of all congratulation for the great work done so far.

I was wondering if it was possible to setup Media Portal to startup in fullscreen on the second monitor.

In my installation 1st monitor is intended for normal work while 2nd monitor is almost dedicated to multimedia purposes.
Of course it's possible to work around it but with either a false full screen (maximize the window) or by set up the 2nd monitor as a clone of the 1st one (in this case I would not be able to work while having something playing).

Thanks.
