Well maybe, but it could be a couple of things. If you have a nVIDIA card Try using nVIDIA control panel to correct the desktop on the secondary monitor?
You do this by activating the secondary monitor, then under Resize HDTV desktop (it can be a bit buggy)

tell me if this is your problem?

Don't have a nvidia card (ati). I kinda solved the problem, in fact it was just xbmc that got the screenposition wrong, the desktop behind it was correct. Altered the shortcut a bit and found that it was the "SDL_FULLSCREEN_HEAD=1" (my tv is monitor 1) that caused the problems. Removed that and replaced it with "-fs" and checked the center-box under "Ultramon-window" tab made xbmc start in 1080i correctly although not maximized fully. Pressing "\" fixes that.

My question is now, is there any way to work around the "\" routine?

thanks
