Is it possible to get MP only on my tv fullscreen and a regular window on my tft?
I use WinXP-SP3, Nvidia clone mode.
Screen 1 - Tft 1280x1024
Screen 2 - TV 800x600

I have my display settings set to Dual View (I think it's called) - spans the desktop across both my TV and monitor.
I then have the TV set as the primary display and moved the start bar across to the other one.

This way, MP opens on the TV (primary) and I can have other windows open on the other. Some windows open under MP though, but there are appications you can use (can't remember the name) that allows you to specifiy which display certain windows (or all) open on by default.

Edit: Looks as though I may have misunderstood what the OP was wanting to do...

:oops:

lol good one,
only way i can think of at mo (in my not so sober state) is to run 1 instance of the tv server, and 2 of the client.
Do this by installing a virtual pc app and running the second mp client on that, in a window, on the monitor
not quite sure what you are trying to achieve though, why do you want to do this?

Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message.

4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

It is present, but not with that name. It is called Scheduler, viz: Interesting. I had never noticed that when the "command" is "ACTION", the "cmdproperty" is the actual window id, but it makes sense that it is. Try this for yourself. First backup your working profile for the remote, then in the "Mapping" panel make a change to...

I don't think so, because MP has no way of knowing at which timestamp the external player stopped playback. Best way to achieve this would be to use an auto-resume feature in your external player itself. (MPC-HC can do that, I don't know about VLC)
