Does anybody know if it's possible to play video preview window in full screen? I have a second monitor & Windows XP. Now I'm dragging and dropping window to it and sizing it manually. Well it works fine, but would be quicker & would look nicer (no windows frames) if there was a simple full screen option in the preview window. I did not find such a command from menus or on-line help....

Any tips?

I don't know if it's possible or not, but i'll caution you that if you did manage it, it would probably play rather jerky or at a slow frame rate. Most PCs can't keep up full frame rate playing full screen media files, especially if it's DV or uncompressed AVI.

My second monitor is 14" TV and I'm sending picture with 800x600 resolution. I'm running a 352x288 video that I'm stretching to double size, that makes 704x576. This resolution is enough for my purposes. Frame rate is 25. With my 1GHz AMD I have no problems running it. I just want the window frames to strecth full screen, not the actual video. Just to make it easier to adjust the window to the second monitor... Minor issue, but would make me happy :-)
