AVS Overlay/Video on multi-mon
Does anyone know how to allow the AVS overlay to extend to more than the primary monitor? (nVidia card)

First, make sure all of your nvidia drivers are up to date. Then, right click on your desktop and go to display properties. In the settings tab click on the advanced button. Somewhere in there should be some nView and overlay stuff. Make sure these are set up correctly so that the secondary monitor is set up to recieve the overlay display(this can require some messing around to get it to work right). Then make sure AVS's overlay mode is enabled and it should work(if it doesn't then double check your settings). If you want AVS running fullscreen on the primary monitor as well then just fullscreen AVS.

Situation: 2 Video Adapters, Primary=GF2 MX400, Secondary=On Board Intel Graphics Shit.
The overlay only shows up on the primary display. I want it on both.

Maybe your Intel doesnt support overlay, but this is very unlikely. This dependson your primary monitor setting (AVS calls the overlay only on the primary one). Maybe there is a way to cheat this - never tried out so far.
