Dual Display: BTV plays on primary display but not secondary (HDTV)

First off let me say incredible software. I have used MythTV (KnoppMyth install) and countless others and this is by far the best. I'm only running into one little problem.

Running:
Windows Vista 32 bit
BTV 4.6
2 GB of ram
2.4 ghz quad core
Geforce 8600GT dual DVI Out

I have my primary display which is a regular monitor and a secondary which is my LCD 46" connected with DVI-HDMI cable. Everything works fine on the primary but when I drag BTV over to the secondary (where I want it to permanently reside) I get sound but no video. Screen is just black. Menu and channels work fine just no video display. Please advise

Thanks in advance,
KC

Thumbs up Re: Dual Display: BTV plays on primary display but not secondary (HDTV)

They recommend that you shouldnt do this but I haven't had any problems at all so far. After making this change I'm even able to run Joost fullscreen on primary and BTV on the secondary with no skips or "stutters". Gotta be the new quad core. Glad I spent the extra money
