Cannot display movie / mpeg content on second monitor

Originally posted in general / chat - got no response - probably wrong forum.

I've got a problem displaying DVD movie and general mpeg content on an external monitor or multi-media projector. I can't locate any previous threads on this.

My laptops a PCG-FR415S running XPpro SP2.

I can display everything else on the monitor/projector connected to the RGB port, including the media player frame and control bar , but no movie/mpeg displays even though its showing on the laptop screen (.mov files display OK though).

This problem happens with all my players - Win Media Player 10 &11, Cyberlink Power DVD and ACDSee media player.

The only info I've found so far is a MSoft KB entry for WMP 7 which says there's a problem caused by NetMeeting but I've not got NM installed.

This is quite annoying as I've got a presentation to give that relies on doing just this |-(

Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks ST
