[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 40506, member: 11550"] What started as my test rig on my bedroom PC has worked so well it is now my proper bedroom HTPC with shared actions as my main computer as well. I find it works very well and for some reason it seems to work better than my dedicated HTPC in the lounge. All I have done is set up Nvidia in clone view with a zoom to the TV of all video material. Since MP renders using DX9, this means that the TV shows MP just as it would on a dedicated machine and my monitor shows everything else. You also have to turn off "Full screen" and "always on top" in mp setup of course. You do have to keep the MP window open at all times, but it doesn't mind being in the background (but the remote doesn't work if it doesn't have focus- then again, if I am sitting at the keyboard I don't need the remote).
