Re: [pygame] Pygame and dualhead displays?

["Alejandro J. Cura" <alecu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There has been a recent thread on this list about this same subject:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/pygame-users/3152065

Also, what platform do you intend to run your app on? win, linux, osx?
I can imagine a hack could be done for your specific case, using a
second window that plays the videos, but depends heavily on the
platform, and a bunch of other variables.
