Dual monitor no pausing
Hey there. I just got this program and I was wondering if it was possible to have it so that when I'm playing a game on one monitor, the other monitor still plays motioned wallpapers? As it is now entering a program or anything makes both backgrounds pause. Right now I'm messing around with the playback options but none of them seem to do this.

'Pause per monitor' is supposed to do this, but if that does not work, it may be because your game is running in exclusive mode. That prevents every other application from using the graphics card. If your game does that, try running it in borderless windowed mode (or anything similar if it has options for that).
Thank you for your quick help. I had thought this was how it was done as well, but regardless the wallpaper on my right monitor (I'm playing games on me left monitor) pause with the left one when a program is started. I've tried what you suggested for the game I'm currently playing (Heroes of the Storm) and it still pauses.

I will try with other games but as of now all of the games I've tried do the same.
I thought you may be interested in knowing I have discovered the problem. While I did have things set to pause per monitor, I also had it set so that any program that had sound would pause it. Thank you for your help.
