When playing AVI, MPG, and MPEG videos WM 11 will play the first video on the
external display, desktop picture is displayed on the second video and the
third video is displayed on the external display.  This happens with all
videos added to the play list.  If I double click the video that is not
displayed it will play on the external display.  There is no consecutive
display of videos via the WM player.  There are three videos cued up in the
playlist.  1st is displayed on the external monitor, second video only plays
video and the third goes back to video.  HELP!!!

Is there an updated video card driver for your video card?
Is this on Windows XP or Vista?
What video card do you have?

If you turn down your video hardware acceleration all the way--

If you have turned down system-wide video hardware acceleration all the way
and are still having problems of this sort, either your driver or your video
card seem broken.  When did this start happening?

When I turned the acceleration all the way down no video would display on the
second monitor.  I used the newest driver from the ATI site instead of
Dell's.  I don't experiece any other video issues except with this one
problem.  I'm going to try it on a different machine to compare the results.  
I'll let you know what I find out.  Thanks for taking the time to keep up
with this post.
