Mac: Full screen on dual monitors still doesn't work with Flash 10.2 upgrade

Recently upgraded to Flash 10.2 specifically for the ability to work on a second monitor while watching fullscreen video on the first.  It's still not working at all.  The second I click on anything on the second screen, the video jumps back from full screen.  I checked to make sure that these sites work properly with dual monitors on a Windows machine.  Any tips to get this working?  Without this feature, certain websites are completely useless.

Running: MAC 10,2,152,33 on OSX 10.6.6

    Hi, Was it working with the previous version of FP?

    go to this site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. Right click on the Flash logo, Settings,
    then UNcheck the hardware acceleration in Display Settings.

    See if that helps at all.

    I tried unchecking the hardware acceleration, and it's still not working.  It did not work in previous versions...as I understand it, this is a new feature in 10.2.

    Hi, I think you are right about it being in this latest FP update. The "More like This" feature on the right hand side of the threads is not working. I think I have some info on Full Screen, but not the dual monitor issue. I'll check to be sure.

    I'll try to find some info on it. There were so many changes that came out with this last update.

    Will get back to you when I find the info.

    Thanks,
