[QUOTE="mrman, post: 93074, member: 17903"] I also have a dual monitor setup. One LCD screen and a one widescreen CRT TV. The TV is primary monitor with MP in fullscreen. I've had some issues with a good resolution for the TV, overscan and so on, but I guess that won't be a problem for you. Anyway, thats sorted now with MP ver 0.2.1.0. I have moved the taskbar to my secondary monitor and all the icons on the desktop as well. The only problem I encounter now is that some windows opens only on the primary display. Earlier I had an app that came with my display drivers (ATI) that manages the dual monitor setup and "remembers" the windows positions. That was a bit helpfull. Now I assigned a hotkey to move the currently focused window to the secondary monitor, unless that window i MP of course. This works quite well. Most apps though opens on the display where the mouse pointer is, or the display on wich it was last opened. When my girlfriend persists in surfing the web, scrolling endlessly up and down, at the same time I'm watching TV, video freezes and stutters due to high CUP usage. Thats not MPs fault though ;-) Other than these small issues I'm very satisfied with my setup. Good luck with your project! [/QUOTE]
