12. Added support for using the Placeshifter on any monitor in a multiple monitor system

does not work for video.

yes I can see menus, I can see everything on my second monitor when I drag it but when I play video it only plays on primary monitor only...

:(

I would double check your video card driver or its settings. The Placeshifter uses the overlay for video playback, so there may be some setting that determines whether it allows the overlay to work on a secondary monitor.

Opus4 and myself both use multiple monitors and it works for us for sure. :)

Works fine here too. (Radeon x800xt with cat 6.5 - default settings)

hmm, very very strange, I have two flat pannel dell 2001FP monitors connected to GeForce 6600 GT card and when I move placeshifter window from one monitor to another I do not see a video. I do see menus and everything else but no video stream...

Under nvidia settings there is video overlay options but there is nothing to select for either monitor so I would imagine settings are for both...

My resolution is set to 1600x1200 and it is 32bit for both monitors.. I did try to set them up exactly the same way. They all get output trough DVI

I dont know why but as I said I can only see video stream on the primary monitor and not on the secondary but yes I can see menus and everything else sage is displaying on the econd monitor except for the video stream.

You've got the nView Display Mode set to Dualview, and the Windows Display Properties Settings tab says "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor"?

Oh - and you've moved the PS window so that he video would be completely on the secondary screen?
