Xine crashes when using option "gui.video_display" to show video on second display

Hi all,

I have configured a second X instance for my LCD television and was
expecting to be able to use the "gui.video_display" option to display
the Xine video window on the second display (:2) and the controls on my
primary display (:1). Although Xine attempts to start on both displays
and the video window is shortly (at most 0.5 seconds) visible on my LCD
television, Xine almost immediately exits with this error:
> X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
>   Major opcode of failed request:  18 (X_ChangeProperty)
>   Resource id in failed request:  0x38003cf
>   Serial number of failed request:  171
>   Current serial number in output stream:  173
I have tried using other video drivers, no difference. When not using
the "gui.video_display" option and simply setting "DISPLAY=:1" Xine
works fine on my television. Obviously, it also works when "DISPLAY=:0".

Does anyone have a suggestion how to get the Xine video window running
on :1 and the controls on :0? Thanks!
