I use my samsung tv as my monitor and i have a small desktop monitor, i have a radeon r9 graphics card and i want to have my gaming on my tv which i currently do but i want to be able to see youtube/twitch/music etc on my desktop monitor without having to come out game stopping and starting...what is the best way to achieve this and how do i go about setting it up correctly? I am using windows 8, Thanks

Go to your graphics display options and choose the option which allows you to have two independant
but identical desktops, with the full start bar at the bottom. It looks like their mirrored but they are independant.
This should do it.

Alternatively, You can set up the program to be "assigned" to a particular monitor when it opens
