Question is (as I don't have an apple tv to test with) can you share just the secondary monitor on a windows 7 machine with an apple tv device through airplay?

Thanks

Good question....

I have mac book air that I share to my apple tv in living room to watch movies. I'll plug in a 2nd monitor to the macbook and see which monitor (or both) are displayed on living room tv and report back this evening.

Under Mavericks, I believe that you can just treat the AppleTV as an additional monitor. I don't know if there're options to have 3 monitors, A B C, such that A and B are unique, with C mirroring B.
