View Full Version : Playing DVDs on my Comp

So I'm having trouble playing DVDs on my computer. They'll play fine, but only on my primary monitor. I have a four monitor setup, and the screen goes black whenever I try to move it to another monitor.
Anybody have any ideas why it does this and how I can get it to work on my other screens?

Is the other monitor worse than current monitor?

I run 4 Samsung 213Ts. If I change my primary monitor, then it will play on that monitor. All 4 monitors work, but only when they are individually set as the primary monitor.
Can this be anything other than a problem inherent to my video card?

Get media player classic--it supports multiple monitors.

What DVD player are you using?
Also, I have a similar problem with PowerDVD but it fixes itself after abotu 10 seconds. Also it only happens if i try to move it while the movie is playing. If i pause it, move it, and wait briefly it's fine. I'm sure you've tried that?

Yes. This is excellent advice.
Are you using mplayer? I like mplayer but I can only use it on my primary monitor.

In MediaPlayerClassic, can you have the movie span over multiple screens?
