Can't display TV on extended desktop
I have the extended desktop and two monitors working fine. I can move
Windows Media, maximize, and it maximizes to the 2nd monitor like it should. However, I can't move the ATI TV window to the second monitor! What's with that?! Am I missing something? |

Not sure why you can't do that, but you could do one of a couple of things as a workaround: 1) Not use extended desktop, set up the clone mode. 2) Switch primary and secondary displays.

Video overlay DOES NOT work on secondary display. Enabling "theater mode"
though might work (video displayed full screen on secondary monitor/tv out). As to why ATI TV doesn't work, and WMP does I have no idea. "Ben Pope" wrote in message ...

Yeah, thats what I said... set up the clone mode, either to theatre or same on all, but that requires removing your extended desktop. As to why ATI TV doesn't work, and WMP does I have no idea. That is pretty strange, but I don't know how the ATI TV app works, I presume that it is not an overlay. Ben -- I'm not just a number. To many, I'm known as a String... |

Please explain "Theater Mode". I am not familiar with this. Where is it set?
How will clone mode help me? It displays the same thing on both monitors. Why it gives me the option of which monitor to display video on, I still get a blank window on my main monitor and can't do any work on it, so I don't see how that helps. Is that what you meant by "Theater Mode"? The idea is to do work on one screen while watching TV on the other. Thanks, -Mike "Ben Pope" wrote in message ...

Is that what you meant by "Theater Mode"? The idea is to do work on one screen while watching TV on the other. Theatre mode takes the overlay from the primary screen and sticks it on the secondary scree, maximised. I see what you need to do and theatre mode is possibly not the best option as it requires you to be playing the video on the primary screen - you can make it as small as you like though.
