Hello, all.  I'm using BCB5 and Media Player 10's ActiveX component to play 
a video clip in my application.  I would like to output the contents of the 
video to a second monitor (full screen) while still viewing the contents on 
the primary monitor (scaled window).

Can this be done with a single instance of WMP, and, if so, how would I go 
about achieving it?

TIA,
Josh

P.S.  I'm not opposed to dropping WMP in favor of something else if 
necessary.

Hello,

The player of TVideoGrabber includes "dual display" properties that lets you 
preview the video window e.g. in a control of your application on a first 
monitor, and by the same display the video in full screen mode on the second 
monitor.

To use this feature you have to extend the desktop to the second monitor. 
You can also capture frames and perform text and/or graphics overlays on 
both video windows.

Kind regards,

Michel.

Michel,

Thank you.  I'll give that a try.

Later,

Josh
