Dualview between a monitor and tv

[Oatmeal]

I'm using a GeForce 4 MX 440 with dualview. I have the monitor set as the default display but I want the bsplayer to run on the tv (ie, I want to be able to play a movie in full screen and use my computer at the same time). Is this possible with bsplayer? I can send WMP to the tv display but I don't see the option for bsplayer.

Hallo!

I´ve got the same problem when using the DualView. I use PalmButler and I see the Palmbutler menu on my TV and not on my Monitor. Fine. But when I choose a film in the PalmButler menu the TV only shows my desktop wallpaper and the BSPlayer starts, but it shows the film only on my monitor not on my TV...
Is there any solution on this problem?

Edit: I have a ATI Radeon 9600SE with Omega Driver 2.5.67

Thanks in advice,
Dirk

Don't know about Nvidia cards, but for ATI(I have one) it goes like this. Open display properties->settings->click on the second display->click to enable "extend my desktop onto this monitor"->press OK. THe second monitor will be activated. Open BSPlayer, open the movie, drag the movie window on right, beyond the phisic edge of the monitor. It should go to the second one. Press "f" for full screen and play. Enjoy.

There's a feature called "Full screen video mirror" under video overlay tab in nvidia's settings, which allow you to watch movies on TV, while doing something else on your computer.
For more information read: http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...sers_Guide.pdf, from page 131.

@majk_tajsam
Thanks for the hint, but I couldn´t find such a feature in the ATI-settings.

@adicoto
This was a very good advice! I have now my second display and could move the BSPlayer window to it. But one Problem: When the PalmButler-Script start the BSPlayer to play a movie it ist displayed one the first display. Is there any command which says the BSPlayer to start on the second display and not on the first one?

That I don't know.

dirk, go to ati display properties and find "theater mode" option. put it on tv and you will get the movie on tv and the monitor will be free. also put subtitles on overlay in BSPlayer.

When I disable the DualView I see this property grayed out, but the "theater mode" is activated. When I switched to the DualView with the PalmButler Software the property to change the "theater mode" isn´t shown anymore...

No other hints or posibilities how I can solve this problem?

A command to start in den second display like "-fs" to start in fullscreen would be very usefull. But such a command doesn´t exist, doesn´t it?
