That happens to me with WMP (Mind you thats when im not using Ultramon)
When im not using ultramon (I never use wmp) I use Nero Showtime, that maximizes it to the one screen only.

This is nothing to do with WMP what-so-ever..... It is the video settings that are not good for the setup he wants. Every video driver and video card combination has its own settings. And each settings has subsettings, etc... Just play around with your settings and try to set things as logic as possible (this requires knowing what each setting in your driver means!).

For starters, set your video driver to dual mode, not clone mode, nor widescreen mode....

After that it depends on your video overlay settings, how thet are set up. It is possible that you view a video on monitor 1 in a small window, but automatically full screen on your second monitor. This is done by video overlaying. Of course this can be disabled or tweak as you like.

Then there are so called hardware settings, highly dependable on your graphics cards and installed drivers. Some cards can do proper video overlaying in dual mode. Other can't do proper video overlaying in clone mode, etc... etc...
