View Full Version : Help needed asap! How do you.....
How do you watch window media player on both screens if you have dual screen setup? I have it set up as a "clone" but it will only play video on one of them.
I'm having a party tonight and I have 2 projectors going but only one of them is showing the videos. Help me out guys! Please!!

most of the video cards i have seen will only play video on one screen at a time.
you could just set it up to output to one monitor and then use a splitter if you want the same picture on both screens.
try something like this: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10104&cs_id=1010401&p_id=4017&seq=1&format=2
you might be able to find a splitter at fry's or something since you need it today. splitters might only work up to a certain resolution not sure, but it might be your only choice.
::edit - just noticed this post was from saturday so it is too late. this is pretty much just for future reference now i guess.

oh and you have to make sure its on horizontal span or something like that
about the video on both screens thing, its just something about the way its rendered from what i've read, you can "trick" it by opening a media player video and then just stop it and minimize and open another media player (while the other is minimized) and play your video and it should work just fine... i do this all the time :D
