covers how to fix this.
Your projection technology doesn't handle the video properly, IIRC.

I cannot get WMP 10 to behave properly when my laptop is connected to
an external monitor (projector). If I am viewing a media file in WMP it
looks fine, but when I attempt to activate the projector connected to
the video card output, the WMP just goes blank. The media is still
playing, but it does not show on the screen.
I can set up the system in dual monitor configuration and extend the
desktop onto the other monitor, and then move WMP so it is half on the
laptop monitor and half on the projector. On the laptop half the media
displays fine, ont he projector it is blank, just showing the WMP
"skin".
If I use for example PowerPoint, the presentation goes just fine. If I
watch media on my laptop screen it works fine. I just can't play media
(DVD, etc) using the external video output.
Using PowerPoint I can even use the dual monitor setup where the
presentation is full screen on the projector and I have the notes and
thumbnails on the laptop, so I don't think it's a hardward issue.
The Laptop is a Toshiba Satelite 5101 with an NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go
adaptor that supports dual monitor.
What's going on here????
Thanks for any advice,
