I have asked this before, but I still have no answer. I have made a
little progress though.
I run a P2P machine with no monitor connected. I log into it remotely
with TeamViewer. If I try to play a video on the remote computer (VLC
player) it doesn't show up on the main machine. I hooked a monitor to
the remote machine to verify that the video does play. By accident, I
happened to run two videos. The second instance does play??????
What could be causing a video not to play in the first instance of VLC
but will display in the second?
little progress though.

#1 from machine #2 by using Teamviewer but there is no monitor on machine
#1.
If that is correct, why does t surprise you that you can't see the video?
Even if you were at machine #1 you couldn't see it without a monitor. It's
sort of like asking, "Why can't I access machine #1 from machine #2 when
machine #1 is off?".

Interesting. Wouldn't it depend on the capabilities of "team viewer"?

I'd expect truly collaborative software could show *any* output captured
from the video card of "PC #1". Isn't it for sharing spreadsheets and
charts and any kind of graphics that would be shown on the originating PC?

Another very strange thing I have noticed is that VLC will display an
album cover when playing an mp3. If I use VLC to play an mp3 on the
remote machine, VLC will display the album cover in the first
instance.

G00gle for a mailing list or forum. My guess would be T.V. can only
display a static image and not *any* videos.
Maybe.

Yes. But there has to be a monitor on machine #1 for you to see anything on
that machine either by sitting in front of it or viewing it remotely.

Just to make things clearer, just pretend that both machines have a
monitor connected at all times. Machine #1 is the remote machine.
Machine #2 uses TeamViewer to control Machine #1.
Sitting at M1, I play a video using VLC and everything works fine.
Sitting at M2, when I play a video on M1 VLC shows a blank screen. If
I open another instance of VLC and play a video, I can see it on M2.
Sitting at M2, I can see a video playing in both instances of VLC.
I have gone to TeamViewer's web site and there doesn't seem to be an
end user forum for general discussion. It looks like paying customers
can open a ticket for one to one help.
When I started using TeamViewer I did not have this problem. It only
started when I did the latest upgrade.

Upgrade to the latest version of VLC... BUT uninstall the old first...
then reboot... then install and pay close attention to the options,
variables and file associations.
A reasonable person has got to wonder why in the samfuck would anyone
deliberately run a movie on a dedicated P2P machine with no monitor so
they could view it remotely from an admin machine... presumabaly, you
installed your VLC from your P2P so the defaults would be to the P2P...
Please take your psycho-meds like your doctor instructed you to and/or
it says on the labels - and schedule a meds-check for ASAP!

The fix is..............
You have to deactivate accelerated video output in the preferences of
your VLC player.

I have a similar problem. I am copying VCR to HDD and don't want to sit in the office and watch it, so I remote into the main (Windows 8) PC from my (Win 8) laptop in the lounge. Originally I was using TightVNC to connect to an XP media PC which had no monitor and that displayed perfectly. That is why I would want to run videos without a monitor! Since remoting from Win8 to Win8 TightVNC will not connect (although it works from Win 8 to Win 7).
TeamViewer connects and plays sound, but the preview window in the Video Recorder is blank.
