I have a strange problem, at least I think it's strange. I use my Mini (2.4 C2D) with 2 displays on occasion. One is a 1080 HDTV, one is a standard 1440x900 monitor.
I can play video on both displays at once. Just tested to be sure, playing VLC on HDTV, Quicktime on monitor. Both smooth, whether fullscreen or not. Neither was HD, but that level isn't even necessary for this problem.
However, with the same movie in VLC, VHS quality btw, if I turn off the little monitor, it starts skipping on the TV. So, apparently, the graphics processing can handle 2 monitors, but it can't handle the TV by itself? It works fine with just the monitor, too. Just not the TV by itself.
