Hi... Have looked at the bs controls, but am unable to see a facility for playing video on the tv while leaving the pc screen free. Hope that there is a facility for this, because i am looking to migrate over from Zoom Player due to the lack of plugin capabilities. Thanks in advance.

If you have an ATI card you should follow this steps. Open display configuration panel. Click on settings and now you should have in front of you a picture with 2 monitors. Click on the second one. Just below this image now you have the option "extend the desktop on this monitor". Click this, with your TV set connected and working. Now, open a video file in BSPlayer. Click on the video window and drag-and-drop it far beyond the right border of your screen. Now the image is on the second monitor, leaving you with your primary screen free to do what you want. When done, just do this steps in reverse order.

Thx for that..Bit basic but it does work. Its a shame that the programme does,nt have the same facility as zoom player in this respect. Maybe it should be considered for inclusion in future developments. Otherwise a very good programme indeed

It's better if you can tell the program where to go. Some peoples prefer to use clone mode and have the same image on monitor and on TV-out. Some like extended desktop funtionality.
