Playing the same video in laptop and 2nd monitor

[ljtorres]

Hi,

I need to play a video file in laptop (monitor 1) in small size and full screen in monitor 2. I've tried via the refences>general>screen>advanced menu to go full screen in screen 2, but the I don't have the small size in monitor 1. Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Lorenzo.

Well, have you already configured your laptop to run two monitors simultaneously?
Did you test the setup?
Actually you provided zero information. I simply googled around:

Yes, I have an Ati HD 2400 XT running in an Acer 7720 laptop with an external second monitor.

Let me explain again: when I play a video I would like to see it still in my laptop in a small size, and at the same time, would like to see it in the 2nd external monitor in full size. The problem is that when I ask for full size to the 2nd, the player dissapears from the 1st.
Thanks!

I'm unsure if 2400xt supports the theater mode of old ati 9xxx series. There should be overlay mixer in filter chains and theater mode must be selected in catalyst control center.

The term of Theater and Clone comes from ATI control panel (See 3rd screenshot below). On ATI graphic cards, there was an option called "theater mode" for TV-OUT, which caused any video overlay being played on the primary monitor to display in fullscreen on the second monitor (TV).
