How does cloning work?

[lordrahl7]

I just upgraded to vlc 1.0.3 and I can't figure out how to make cloning work. I was running a previous version , 0.99 or something not really sure, and i had vlc set when ever i opened a video the normal window would open plus a 2nd window with the same video playing would also open. I use this for playing a movie on two screens with the option of just one and working on the other I am very unfamiliar with advance features if vlc and i can't find any documentation that helps me.
