I just discovered SVP it seems they updated POTPlayer and MPC - HC dition. The problem is I cannot get any of these programs to play a movie on 4 screens.
 
I can get 3 screens since NVidia surround makes 3 screens one, but my 4th is the accessory. Currently VLC can do it by stretching a video window onto all 4 or setting it up into "Wall Paper Mode"
 
Pot Player and MPC + SVP won't do it except on 3, there has to be an option (I tried disabling DXVA did not work) to allow for multiple monitor support. Anyone have any idea?
i.e

I have USE DSXVA at the top and it does not list condition anymore but it has H264 compatibility.
I am curious though the main goal is I am trying to get this to work like VLC media player in wall paper mode ( I can set it up so that it puts video on all 4 of my 30" screens. Right now on 4 screens it only puts it on 3 due to nvidia surround, but in VLC it will do all 4.
system:
4 30" 1600p monitors

EDIT: 3 problems I reset it up and I got POTPLAYER + SPV to work on your max settings but I have a black on the bottom with POTPLAYER, I can view everything by adjusting the video with pan but was wondering if I had set something up wrong:

See the black bar on the bottom? With Pan/scan offset I can centerize it then make it full screen but images still of course take it with the black bar. I figure there is a setting I have wrong. Still wish I could get this on all 4 screens.

2 When I utilize PotPlayer Playback only it for some reason does not work with SPV with your settings, have you ever encountered that?
3 I am still not having any luck putting the image on all 4 screens. It seems to utilize the 3 screens in surround correctly but I cannot figure out how to set it up on the 4th. When it moves to the 4th it becomes blurred. This by far is the best player I have used with your settings I am just trying to get it to work on the 4th like VLC any ideas?
Full screen effect: in VLC (notice it is on all 4 screens)

This is how it looks with Potplayer or MPC when I move passed the 3 screens
If you notice there is the black bar on the bottom (seems to only show up in Potplayer.exe not mini version) + the distortion on the right screen where I try to extend it

Edit 2 I did some editing and checked to see if any change would happen if I activated all displays and not putting it into Surround. It seems that Media Player Classic and PotPlayer have difficulty processing the other screens unless windows sees them as (1) screen. For example on All Displays when you try to expand the player it blurs the video on the other screen. However, VLC did not have this issue. It's really annoying since the features of PotPlayer are AMAZING. I went back to surround and have the black bar on the bottom still but I have not found a solution to it not showing video on more than 1 monitor (in my case 2 since Nvidia sees 3 as 1)
I also had posted on the SPV forums as well:

If anyone has had success would love to get your input!

    This is because of how DirectX and OpenGL render modes work. They need to see it as a single pseudo-display. It's why there is a difference between spanning and extending on multi-display. Video players use DirectX or OpenGL (depending upon what renderer you select) to show the video. DirectX and OpenGL don't want to span across extended displays. You would have zero problem with this if it was Eyefinity 4x1P. Welcome to Nvidia Surround's total lack of span mode configuration options.

    Did you try just grabbing the side of the window and dragging it with your mouse to the next display? not ideal, but it may work.
