Ok.. I've read through all 63 pages of information here and seen several references for people asking for help to get the Netflix window to open up on something besides the primary display and I have even seen one or 2 references to people managing to make it happen but I have yet to see some for of explanation that works properly and simply. I would use the trick where in I open IE on the "3rd" monitor, my flatscreen tv" and then close it there so it opens there by default but I need to use IE for other things that just don't work correctly in firefox, like my work training site. So having IE open on a screen that isn't always on isn't a useful fix for me. Often I like to put my show, movie, what have you on as background noise/distraction while I surf the web or do my training. Can someone offer a more fluid working solution to the multiple display problem and perhaps a bit of a howto to go along with it? Ideally it would be nice to get it to work like native XBMC where it can be set to a display/audio output independently as I use the 3rd monitor and the optical digital out for XBMC output and my main dual monitor setup and the regular sound output and speakers for my daily PC tasks. Up until now everything has worked fairly well and basically fluid.
I mean it basically works.. I would just would like it to work a little differently and better if possible.
My setup is as follows.
AMD Triple core
4Gb ram
Dual LG 21.6" monitors connected to a Radeon HD2600xt
Single 32" Daytek LCD TV hooked to the onboard video out as monitor 3
Gyration MCE remote running through Event Ghost (which I need to tweak a little)
Sony HT receiver using Optical digital out from the PC for 5.1 surround sound.
