i use the extender desktop on my laptop and i want to show and control on the laptop and just show one the extended display

it is possible cause i have done it but can't do again

yep is it possible

I don't know how to do what you are asking for, but I find myself using keyboard shortcuts when playing videos fullscreen. Also, with a remote you can control video playback from across the room.

using power dvd couldn't you just drag the control over to the other monitor then then control it from there or does this not work. i haven't really had dual monitors before so it is hard to test things out. and in media player what version do you have?

ok, do you still know how to do it in 10 or no? and i will see if i can find anything for 11

hi
