question about laptop projection

DoubleDDoubleD Member Posts: 273 ■□□□□□□□□□
hi i have a laptop and projector
I project on to the wall and can see every thing the desk top and icons and do all the usuall stuff on both the laptop and the wall/screen

OK so the problem is when I go to play an FLV and/or a DVD.
The DVD image comes on the laptop screen but no footage is shown on the wall
the same with FLV files as well

any ideas how to get the image on both screens how can i fix this?
i want to be able to see the image on both laptop and wall

    Usually this is a limitation of the Video drivers, not all support DirectShow on 2ndary displays. Try setting the Projector to be your Primary display if your graphics control panel does not allow you to set it to accelerate for both.
    We responded to the Year 2000 issue with "Y2K" solutions...isn't this the kind of thinking that got us into trouble in the first place?

    You can also disable overlays, if your video playback supports it. On WMP go to Tools >Options > Performance > Advanced and uncheck Use overlays.
