I have had this problem before. Go to your diaplay
properties and find the dual monitor settings and set the
external monitor to be the master and your computer as
being the slave. This should display your video on the
external monitor but not on your PC. You can also set the
monitors as being one big screen and draq media player
onto the second screen.

I think the problem is something to do with the way
XP/Media player overlays the video onto the screen.

Sorry i cant be more specific but the solution differs
from PC to PC and its not something ive played with in a
while.
