[QUOTE="rekenaar, post: 393510, member: 27829"] Hi there and welcome :) I don't think there is a startup switch for that. Your only option would then be to man-handle it with 2 bat files. Example: Configure MP for screen 1. Copy the MediaPortal.xml file to a backup location and call it something like MPScreen1.xml. Configure MP for screen 2. Copy the MediaPortal.xml file to same location and call it something like MPScreen2.xml. Now create file MP1.bat. It should have 2 commands in it to copy and replace MPScreen1.xml to MediaPortal.xml and then launch MediaPortal.exe. Now create file MP2.bat. It should have 2 commands in it to copy and replace MPScreen2.xml to MediaPortal.xml and then launch MediaPortal.exe. Only problem is that you will have to redo the copy part if you need to change other MP configuration settings. I don't really like it, but i am not aware of another method. [/QUOTE]
