I just use a PS3 I know you can do more with a PC but this is the list of things that are nice on the PS3 DLNA compliant Blu-ray/DVD Player Supports Divx/Xvid and it can handle 1080p If you are wanting to play those HD MKV files look up mkv2vob it is a converter and is decently quick. all this for like 400 bucks, oh and it plays video games and has a bluetooth remote |

Sam, what happens when you play a video full screen? |

The requirement for dual screen and touchscreen and all that stuff knocks this contender out of the play field, but I still wanted to mention it anyway. I recently got a Popcorn Hour A-100 NMT and this thing is really nice. $179 and it plays any video file I throw at it. Flawless streaming 1080 hidef with HDMI, component, and SPDIF outputs. Saved me the trouble of building a HTPC and it's cheap too. You can even put a hard drive in it and run Bittorent right on the appliance. :D -pmc |

There's a setting in display properties that lets you treat multiple monitors as a single virtual monitor if you want a video to wrap, but I prefer to watch on one or the other. |
