[QUOTE="cameronr, post: 744402, member: 113112"] That's pretty much what I do, here's the steps: 1) Windows launches EG automatically on LCD (LCD primary) 2) In the startup of EG it switches Projector to primary (I use VidRes for this) and then launches MP (just using "C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.exe") in windowed mode. MP then starts on the projector (I have the projector off for all of this) 3) I then use an EG "find window" to wait for the main MP portal window to become active (This can take 30 seconds or more on startup) 4) Once MP main window is active EG changes the LCD to primary and moves the MP window back to the LCD (still in windowed mode) 5) Now whenever I play tv/video EG will set projector to primary, move EG to the projector, send a toggle fullscreen command to MP and then I can enjoy judder free video ;) Send me a PM or start a new thread if you want more details as we are probably getting a little off topic...
