Re: Video Out

There is no programmatic control (through an SDK) for
outputting to the S-Video output. Generally, you need
to use the Control Panel's Advanced Display Settings to
either mirror the desktop or extend the desktop onto a
second monitor in order it as an output.

Thanks. I just wanted to know if there was an easier way.
I will do it by choosing the correct monitor, i've done
it in he past already using EnumDisplayMonitors.

You can just use the IVMRMonitorConfig(9) on the video
renderer itself (if it's a VMR(9)).

Notice that, if the video driver is configured to mirror the
video (in the driver-specific display properties), you will
get high-quality hardware-accelerated full-screen video on
the secondary display for free as long as your video
renderer uses a hardware-accelerated overlay surface (or a
D3D9 surface as well on some newer hardware), which is the
default.
