Hello,
So here it is, I'm trying to display a video with VLC on a video projector without using DirectX but Direct3D. The only problem is that I can't figure out how to automatically open the video on the projector (it opens by default on my main screen).
I hope I was clear enough.
Thank you.

Hi plop
Do you have a particular reason for wanting to use Direct3D instead of DirectX?
When selecting DirectX output, it is possible to choose the display device, but with Direct3D, I personally have never managed to do that.
Open VLC, and go to Tools -> Preferences
In the Interface menu:
Uncheck: Embed video in interface
In the Video menu:
In the dropdown menu "<b>Output</b>": select DirectX
In the dropdown menu DirectX -> "<b>display devices</b>": select \\.\DISPLAY2
Save, close VLC, reopen it and test by opening a video.
Otherwise, in output, you can select Direct3D and choose \\.\DISPLAY2, but it has never worked for me.
By choosing Direct3D, there's still the option to drag your video window all the way to the right side of your screen, and you should then see it appear on the projector.
