ASUS 9600XT video overlay issue
I have my drivers set so that the video overlay automatically goes to
full screen on my TV. The TV is always connected and the vid card is always in clone mode. For some reason, .mov files do not automatically fill the TV screen when played as they should. How do I set it so they do? I'm using the latest Omega drivers (I forgot the version number). ~wm |

Don't want to insult your intelligence, but have you tried going into
Control Panel - Multimedia - Video Tab and selecting the "Full Screen" option? -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.

Perhaps your Quicktime settings are wrong (not using video-overlay). Go to
Control Panel - Quicktime - Video settings and check that all four settings are enabled, especially "Enable Direct Draw On Secondary Monitors".

Tested it myself.
MOV files do not play fullscreen on my TV either (regular 9600 with 4.6 CAT's, Overlay - Theater Mode enabled). So it propably has nothing to do with ATI at all, it just a mov thing (since it is actually a MAC file format it most likely doesn't use video overlay the same way other files do which causes that video overlay capture to secondary monitor doesn't detect it). I did notice however that when ever I moved my mouse pointer over the video window the picture TV flicked fullscreen for a second. My guess, there's nothing you (or me) can do to fix this. Every other movie file format I can think of works fine (including .rm, even streams from a webpage show fullscreen on TV). Anyone else been messing with mov files?

You could screw all the proprietary, bloated media players altogether and
just use Media Player Classic, available with the KazaaLite Codec Pack. Plays all AVI, MPEG2, MOV, Real formats in a clean interface, with 4-5 different ways to render overlays. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.

I don't usually use Real Player for anything else but streams. Which is why
I never noticed this behaviour before. I also don't have MPC (my usual video player is Global DivX Player, which is about as light as it gets, nothing fancy) so I can't test whethet it would show MOVs fullscreen on TV-out. I doubt it, since neither RealPlayer or Quicktime itself is able to do it. WMP9 doesn't even play MOV's. If you can check how MPC performs with MOV-files, please report back.
