I ended up writing a little app that plays a movie across all displays. If anyone else needs it (or has some advice to make it better) its here

You are free to setup a window yourself , add a QTMovieView in it, and display it as you need.

NSRect contents = [aScreen frame];
contents.origin = NSZeroPoint;
NSWindow *window = [super initWithContentRect:contents
		                              styleMask:NSBorderlessWindowMask
                              		backing: NSBackingStoreRetained
                                		defer:NO screen:aScreen];
[window setContentView:myMovieView];

SetSystemUIMode(kUIModeAllSuppressed, kUIOptionAutoShowMenuBar);
[window makeKeyAndOrderFront];

It does, doesn't it. However, it has lots of little problems, and is
only really useful for the simplest of cases. Search the list archives
for "enterFullScreenMode".

Hi All, I'd like to create a little app the runs a quicktime movie
(prores) fullscreen across multiple monitors. I think I can figure
out the QTKit stuff, but couldn't find upto date documentation on
going fullscreen. I've found some code snippets to do it, but they
are all pre-leopard and I have a feeling that its a bit more
straightforward on leopard (i'm hoping). Can anyone point me in the
right direction? (or has this already been done?) Its for personal
use and not distribution so min specs 10.5.5 etc. is fine.

Leopard introduced a new API for this. See NSView's enterFullScreenMode:withOptions: method.
