Forums -> UltraMon™ -> how to automatically play videos/music on secondary monitor

When I double click an audio/video file, I want it to play automatically on my secondary monitor. This works only if i play the audio/video program file alone, then I have to open and browse to play the file on the secondary monitor. How do I set it so that if I double-click to play an audio/video file on the primary monitor, it will automatically play on my secondary monitor? Thanks

UltraMon can't do this, but some video cards support video mirroring, with this option enabled any video playing on the primary monitor will automatically get mirrored fullscreen on the secondary monitor. This option can be enabled via the software for the video card.

Can you please show me how to enable this option?

My Nvidia card doesn't support this on Vista, at least not with the drivers I'm using, but on XP the option was called video mirroring and could be enabled via the Nvidia software (Control Panel > NVIDIA Control Panel). ATI calls this theater mode if I remember correctly.
