dual video card problem....media player can't play on cloned monitors? - GoFuckYourself.com

It looks like my media player will only actually play on 1 monitor when 2 are hooked up in clone mode? Is there a way to watch the same video on both screens simultainiously?

NVidia card dual 128mb 1 flat monitor and 1 42 plasma tv / windows OS - I can get the screen to clone but the video only plays on 1 monitor or the other. (The desktop is not stretched it's duplicated)

Try winding down the level of hardware acceleration, in XP right click on the desktop->properties->settings->advanced->troubleshoot

What kind of interface is the plasma monitor using? Is it a commercial DVD you're trying to play? DVD software (and presumably WMP) will sometimes get cranky about a second monitor.

does the video player load? i had 2 monitors with dual outputs and was running 4 total (2 dvi and 2 regular). the regular ones would drag and video thru winamp would never play.

Now it is not working on the plasma? but plays on the flat monitor? is this correct?

it will only work on 1 or the other, (I can switch it back and forth) - doesn't work for any video files - I am currently trying to play .avi and .mpgs. Two media player windows will show up (1 on each screen) but only 1 will play the video.
