I have a setup where my secondary output is to my HDTV.  MY primary monitor (formerly not used at all, really) is getting ALOT more use these days.  I created a second instance of MC that will use a different zone (my USB sound card) so I can listen to music locally on instance #2 while instance #1 of MC is showing up in the den.  It works, but I have a problem:  my options are set to start in theatre view on monitor #2.  For this to work, I need a way to start the second instance with a 'standard view' switch AND a 'zone 2' switch.  I can't seem to get it figured out...

There's no way to have independent settings for each instance.

We've considered expanding zones to support multiple user interfaces (currently you can have multiple playbacks but only one user interface).

Would it be possible to setup your system with Remote Desktop or similar so each client used a separate user account on the same machine?  This way they could have unique settings.

I'll give that a try.  I guess it would have to be something from Microsoft, since I would need to access 2 different Windows user accounts.
