Dual screen playback-Video and controls in distinct displays

[GrindNerd]

I'd like to play videos in a dual screen setup (screen + screen or screen + projector) and be able to control the playback with the controls in one screen and the video itself on the other.

I found out how to extract the interface and this way I can separate the controls from the playback on different screens, but as soon as the mouse pointer moves from over the controls, they disappear. To get them back, I have to roll over the video in the other screen, which is pretty anoying during a live performance.

Is there any way to pin the controls so they don't hide when the pointer is not over them?

Thanks.
