Re: Frame buffer

Yes you can use that "theatre mode" with BTV.
I do it all the time when I want to use my computer monitor for normal desktop stuff while the Tvs in the house continue to display BTV / Video.

BTV must be set to Overlay Playback to use theatre mode.

The way I use it though I don't get the info bar and other "overlays" display on my TV (secondary monitor) but they show up on primary.
Depending what your aim is you can switch primary and secondary monitors (try it it'll become more understandable than I can describe it).
