DVD Player and Multiple Monitors

Currently if you tell the DVD Player to go full screen on a multiple monitor system, it will maximize on on screen and the other screens will appear normal.

Unfortunately, as soon as you click on a window on one of the other screens the movie will go back into a windowed state.

It would be really cool if you could put a movie full screen on one monitor and still continue to work normally on the other monitors.

I use VLC to play a dvd on a second screen. Under the video menu/screen/ then select screen 2, now under the video menu, select full screen. It will play full screen on whatever monitor you want, and allow you to work on the other one.
