Anyone know how to get video to play one cloned displays?

When i clone displays on ATi or nVidia cards only one screen has it. I have no problems doing this with Intel Extreme graphics however. Anyone know where the settings are? This is with Catalyst 4.7 and Forceware 71.89

I'm curious to know how to configure this also.

If I remember correctly, overlays will only go to the primary monitor. You need to use something like the VMR7/9 renderer/mixer to do this, I think. You could also try temporarily disabling overlays for the hell of it, but that would probably get kind of slow.

Overlays can't be cloned, that's the thing. You can however set a special mode to play the overlay fullscreen on the "other" display. ATi calls that "Theater Mode", Matrox call it DVDmax, and I'm sure NVidia also have a pretty name for it.
