[QUOTE="gregsmith, post: 62745, member: 21807"] Thanks a lot for the reply. I've been looking through and found that people have written plugins to get mp starting full screen on the second monitor, so it must be possible to run it this way. I assume there's some option I've not noticed to stop using directx or something? My knowledge of directx is low. Unfortunately I'm not at my home machine at the moment so can't look. EDIT: On further reading I've found that you can disable the directx exclusive mode or something, but it means that all the work is being done by the CPU, hence the slow performance. I'm sure you already know all this ;) Hopefully there'll be some sort of workaround at some point. I don't want to have to use different software as I love mediaportal. [/QUOTE]
