I wanted to see THANK YOU for the little app you made. Maybe its a good idea to make a new topic for the app.

Can you try to just run the program the regular way. (double click on it) Then in the form, browse to xbmc and type 1 in Monitor nr, then see if its starts xbmc correct?

Just tried it. Same thing happened, i.e., XBMC seems to launch on the primary monitor for a flash second and then minimize to the bottom bar. After clicking "move", the secondary monitor becomes all white. I then press ESC and XBMC appears finally on the secondary monitor. Can you help?
This app is great and it's what I want if it works as planned.

Here we go again.... I had 10 minutes free today so i added a new option Always on top. I also added a new commanline option override. If this is specified the program launches xbmc with the settings specified in the Form.
eks
Xbmclaunch.exe override
the regular way of launching it is
xbmcLaunch.exe xbmcPath,monitornr
xbmcLaunch.exe C:\Program Files\XBMC\XBMC.exe,2
I did also try to figure out why it for someone starts in "minimized mode". Could not reproduce it, but now i set focus on xbmc after its moved to the desired screen.
For those who are interested.
