Multiple monitor support

Post by srn »

I have a computer which has an LCD monitor and a second vga connection to a projector. With an old version (5.0) of WinDVD, I can play the DVD and have the video appear on the projector while leaving the player controls on the LCD monitor. This works great for my purposes. I just purchased the latest version of WinDVD (2010) to install on a second similar system. I can drag the WinDVD to the projector, but I cannot find any way to leave the player controls visible on the LCD monitor while the video is playing on the projector. Is this a function that is no longer available, or am I missing something? Both systems have the 2nd monitor (projector) configured as extended desktop.

With the latest version of WinDVD, you can not move the controls to a different screen, you can however use the Hot-Key's. I have attached a screen shot of the Hot-Key's.

You can access more information regarding WinDVD by select the Corel Guide at the top right corner of the WinDVD screen, it is the arrow pointing down with the circles surrounding the arrow.
