Using shortcut to enter full screen on 2nd monitor - kamcknig - 2013-12-20

Hi everyone!

I'm running Windows 7 x64 with two monitors.

I know there is the option in the settings to set the display mode to windowed, full screen on monitor 1 and full screen on monitor 2.

Most of the time I run it in windowed mode on my second monitor, but sometimes I'd like to be able to put it in full screen on the second monitor.

If I press \ though it always goes into full screen on my primary monitor.

Now there are two problems:
1: when it enters full screen it goes onto the primary monitor rather than the second monitor
2: when it switches screens and goes to full screen the video disappears and is just black. I have to stop the video playback and restart it to get the video back. (side note, this happens when i move the window in windowed mode to a different monitor too, the video disappears, seems to be a general bug, not just when going to full screen on a different monitor)
