I think real player doesn't support mulit monitor. Anyone have any experience with it?

Same here, the video window just stays black on secondary monitors. QuickTime also doesn't work properly on secondary monitors.

I have Media Player running fine on a secondary monitor (Win2K SP1, Media Player 7). I had a lot of problems running earlier versions of Media Player and other versions of Windows, but this combination seems to run reliably for me. I even have 2 Media players running, one on each monitor (pity my poor CPU ;)

I had that problem too. Just now got 3 TNT cards setup on 3 monitors. Big brother running on its own with a black screen on secondaries. Have huge sluggish display problems and have been serfing the web for an hour for a solution. All the sudden I saw BB video comming in on the secondaries. I changed nothing. It just took a long time to display. Most likely I still have a basic problem, but REAL will come thru and I located window in the corner to span all 3 screens. 2 Cards are grabing the same interupt on a SOYO 4 MoBo. 3rd card has its own IRQ. This has to be the reason for the slugish performance and shutdown freezeups. But have been unable to force seperate IRQ's. Any thoughts?

Update - Award bios has "Passive Release" feature. This allows CPU to get to the RAM when no one is looking, rather than waiting for permission. This may be good with a few cards, but my box is full. When I dissabled this feature, my lockups stopped. The display still is sluggish but it appears to be bullit proof. Real still takes 10-20 minutes to start in secondary monitors.
