Thread: dual display problem

Welcome to the Forum! Please read this topic to learn how to post code correctly and other useful tips for newcomers.

sir i edit my post here for my problem sir and have been read post code guidelines ..

Provide an example program that demonstrates the problem. What you're seeing and trying to fix is not clear. Is it a Java problem or a an OS or hardware problem? Do you have a container on each monitor, both containing a video? Show that code.

actually this is my source in java that works but everytime i call that mplayer in the second monitor it play in the first monitor im using linux centos 6.5 i tried to read in the other tutorial they modify the xorg.conf but in centos 6.5 the does not have xorg.conf in X11 data source what should i do to display my movie in second monitor please help ....

 public static void startMPlayer() throws IOException {
		if (mplayerProcess == null) {
			// start MPlayer as an external process
			String command = mplayerOptions ;
			System.out.println("command  ==  "+command);
			mplayerProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
 
			// create the piped streams where to redirect the standard output and error of MPlayer
			// specify a bigger pipesize
			PipedInputStream  readFrom = new PipedInputStream(1024*1024);
			PipedOutputStream writeTo = new PipedOutputStream(readFrom);
			mplayerOutErr = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(readFrom));
 
			// create the threads to redirect the standard output and error of MPlayer
			new LineRedirecter(mplayerProcess.getInputStream(), writeTo, "MPlayer says: ").start();
			new LineRedirecter(mplayerProcess.getErrorStream(), writeTo, "MPlayer encountered an error: ").start();
 
			// the standard input of MPlayer
			mplayerIn = new PrintStream(mplayerProcess.getOutputStream());
		}
		// wait to start playing
		waitForAnswer("Starting playback...");
		//logger.info("Started playing file ");
	}

Try searching the web for 'x11 java multi display'. I saw a couple results that looked promising, but I leave the discovery to you.
