two videos on two monitors at the same time

[guybr]

Hi,
i have windows xp, and two monitors with a nvidia graphic card. I set up the dual-view option.
I would like to open two fullscreen videos, at the same time, from the command line..

is it possible?

You can use TVTool to enable more options than your graphics card may. This makes the same video on a monitor and TV possible.

I've not been able to play two different videos, on different monitors.

vlc --fullscreen --no-overlay --video-x 1025 --vout vout_directx --directx-device "\\.\DISPLAY2" don.avi

vlc --fullscreen --no-overlay --vout vout_directx --directx-device "\\.\DISPLAY1" anf.avi

i'm trying starting two instances of this, but it do not open a video on the secondo screen...

If that is what you do on the command line, it will play the first avi file, exit and then play the second. If you want them both at the same time, you should use
start vlc --fullscreen blablabla
start vlc --fullscreen blablabla

Don't know if that is the issue you are dealing with though...
