Setup: A laptop running MC in theater view. Attached is a 65-inch 4K TV, used only for movies or slideshows.
 
Since zones don't allow directing the video output to different screens, I tried to use the "detached display". This mostly does what I expect, but fails in some situations for no apparent reason.
This allows me to browse through the library in theater view and select movies or photos to play on the 'detached display'. If I then move through the main menu of the theater view, the detached display is closed again. Since I can turn it back on with Ctrl-6 I assume there is no reason for this behavior.
Could this be corrected in one of the next releases?

For users who mostly listen to music and only turn on the TV for movies, this is a pretty good thing. It would be nice if 'detached display' was upgraded by specifying in the options on which monitor a full-screen display should take place.
