Video output of video file?

[Norky]

I have a 9800pro AIW and what I want to do is watch movies from my computer on my TV. I have connected the video card to the TV via s-video but what I need now is software to let me output just the video file rather than simply duplicating my desktop so that I can do other things on my monitor at the same time. Any suggestions?

There should be a function in the graphics card drivers which will allow you to set it up as a second screen. In the nVidia drivers it's called Dualview.
Sorry, I don't know what it's called in the ATI driver but it should be there.

It'll be something to do with just outputting the 'Video Overlay'... no idea whaere itll be in the options tho.
