I am interested in using MJ for a church setting. when i convert a dvd to an copmuter file, I want to be able to have the program send the vidoe portion to the projector. while I still have the control screen on my computer. Is that standard or would I have to have someon write a plugin?

i donmt use a projector myself (i use a large HDTV), but if the projector has a monitor function, you can use them as 2 independant screens.
windows will allow you to create an extended desktop. connect both together > right click in desktop screen > properties > settings...
i frequently set it up so i have the visualisations / video on the hdtv and the track info on my laptop.

You sure can, I do just that, I have my main PC down in the basement which holds all my media, I use a laptop out my the pool with a wirelees network connection to the basement, so I can select music or video.
The audio from the sound card in the pc is just split and fed outside to the amp and speakers (5.1 decoder)
I have a g4 graghics gard with twin monitor outpt and a RCA, I run a cable some 50 meters from that to the rear of my projector, so whatever shows on montior 2 comes out of the projector aswel, approx 5 meter screen accros one end of my pool
The pic is as sharp as any if seen through a projector and I can control the lot from anywhere around my property.
I hope this helps
