Evaluating SageTV HD Theater on my MacBook with a second monitor connected. When trying to view full screen on the second monitor, the second screen goes black.

I believe that SageTV is blacking out the second monitor, expecting full screen on the first monitor. Strangely, the option in preferences "Blank other screen in full screen mode" has no effect on this problem at all.

Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

I had never tried that before but can confirm that on my Mac Pro if I Toggle Full Screen on the second monitor it goes black. If I then use Command-Q to quit the application when next I start SageTV on my 30" 2560x1600 primary monitor it royally screws up the display & the secondary display is black.

CTRL-SHIFT-F is the magic key sequence to toggle Full Screen mode so as to regain control.
