Hi folks,

hope someone as some Ideas about this problem of mine.
I would like to be able to open a media player on the secondary monitor in full screen mode.
On the primary monitor I want to then place a preview in a much smaller screen of the output to the secondary monitor.
I can't just open the video etc twice because of the sound. It must be the same actual clip. A bit like a mirrored image.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Adrian Rhodes

You could do this with UltraMon's windowed mirroring feature, see Scripting > Command-line arguments in the Help for details on the /w option.

Keep in mind that UltraMon needs to disable video overlays in order to mirror a video window, this reduces playback performance.

BTW, video mirroring may not work on Windows XP due to a bug in UltraMon. The bug has already been fixed, send me a mail if you would like to try the latest build.
