Media Center | Control Panel
I've never had a need to have Media Center on a secondary monitor so I never looked
into this before but I setup a gaming machine last night and wanted to be able to toggle
Media Center on the secondary monitor. I did a little digging and I didn't find anything
that worked the way I wanted it to for MC7 so if anyone else is interested the plugin
will do the below:
If in full screen mode it put Media Center in windows mode.
Toggle between different active monitors.
Remove the title bar, caption, ...
Resize Media Center to fit the entire screen.
Note:
The add-in is named Media Center Control Panel as my next step is to be able to
switch audio devices, toggle primary display (see
W7ToggleDisplay),
and some other control panel functions
It installs to Extras - Extra Library - Toggle Display
It does not have an icon yet, sorry but...
I only tested on W7 x64 RTM with 2 and 3 monitors attached
The Maxifier
As an alternative and a more complete solution, The Maxifier assists in running Media Center
on two screens and has been updated for use with Windows 7. For more information please see
