We use three displays. Dual screens at the desk and a projector for tv. Running games while watching video on other screens is possible by using windowed mode for games, instead of fullscreen
the struggle for the day was the Ultima 6 Project. It’s a Dungeon Siege mod for one of my favorite childhood games and it looks great.
There were 3 main steps.
Installation instructions for The Ultima 6 Project are at http://u6project.com/wp/?page_id=41

For windowed mode and 1080p resolution, create batch file with the following (single) line
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Dungeon Siege 1\DungeonSiege.exe" map_paths=!"C:\PROGRA~2\TEAMAR~1\U6PROJ~1\RESOUR~1" res_paths="C:\PROGRA~2\TEAMAR~1\U6PROJ~1\RESOUR~1" user_path="C:\PROGRA~2\TEAMAR~1\U6PROJ~1" width=1920 height=1080 fullscreen=fals
e
to make it look nice, create a shortcut to the batch file and set the icon location to
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Team Archon\U6 Project\U6_Project.ico

open your new shortcut and drag top of window to top of screen to maximize it. You may also want to adjust your volume mixer to match volumes with your video
