I'm currently using a 144hz monitor with a 60hz monitor and WMP is rendering at 144fps. It's fine if I drag the player to my 144hz monitor but it's extremely jerky on the other monitor and the only way I can fix it is to make the 60hz display the main display. Media player classic is rendering at 24fps no matter what but I prefer WMP so i need help.
 
It's my understanding this is typical if you mix monitors with different refresh rates.

The main monitor is used as reference and the second one synchs off of that. Unless this has been FIXED somehow that's likely the problem.

So the fix is likely to synch both to 60Hz.
