Dual monitors

[krallabandi]

I am not able to see real media files (.rm) files in full screen mode
in the second monitor (TV). I can see Windows media files, .avi files
from VLC media player in second monitor (TV) in full screen mode. When
I cannot see .rm files on full screen? I can see .rm files only with
default size on second monitor. Do I have to install any drivers or any
thing for this?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks.

sorry , I don't have any experience using TV as monitor not heard of
problems like yours. but I did see a Microsoft article using dual monitors
on XP Pro..

primary monitor connects to the regular monitor output connector, the second
one connected to the dvi connector. Supposedly no additional software nor
driver required as far as I remember.

Maybe these websites may help. I do not use .rm files.

It could be a screen resolution issue, especially if your TV/Monitor
is using S-Video which limits the resolution to 640 x 480 (primarily
because most TVs other than the newer EDTV or HDTV models are
incapable of displaying higher resolution).

Good luck
