Multiple Monitor Support?
Hi - I'm having a problem with Multiple Monitors when using Winamp (2.91) AVS.
I have Winamp and the AVS panel running on my secondary monitor and the AVS display fullscreen on the primary monitor.
When I go to change a setting in the AVS control panel, the cursor disappears when I move it over the cp - when I try to click on it, it exits the fullscreen AVS and reverts it back to a window.
Is there a way around this at all?

Yeah, AVS will not share anything if you have it in fullscreen mode. It will not mutitask. You have to set it to overlay mode inthe display screen. This will set AVS as your background on your primary display.

Jaheckelsafar, do you know if i could set the overlay to the second display too (overlay duplication or something like that) ???

Not unless you can direct it, but that's a videocard thing, not AVS. My videocard will only send the overlay signal to the primary display.

Usually your video card drivers will allow you to redirect dialog boxes to a specific monitor, nvidias horribly convoluted nview system for example. Hunt around in the options, but tell us your card and drivers next time.
