I don't use Kodi myself, but with a bit of Google magic I see that you can turn on debugging and then there will be a log to look at.

Once you have that log, the Kodi Forum may be more able to help if someone here can not:

Re: second screen bug
you might also try installing the newer xfce4-settings from our test repo. it includes some multi-monitor fixes. No idea if it will address your problem, but it can't hurt to try.
use mx-packageinstaller->full catalog tab->test repo to do the install if you decide to try.

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.

Re: second screen bug
Same Problem already.
If it is important: i have no desktop on the second screen. Only the background image.

Re: second screen bug
Hmm.. I do got the impression you decribe your issue in the wrong order.
You might first go into Settings -> Display and sort out the Display settings
to have a proper 2-Monitor Display. Other wise you will not have a desktop on the 2nd monitor.
Simply check whether you can move deskop icons onto the 2nd monitor-desktop!
Only if you have a proper desktop on both monitor, you might try to move open app-window
onto the 2nd display.

Re: second screen bug
You do show only one setting of the two monitors!
I do recommend the following
make sure with both monitors to select "Use this Monitor",
Select "Mirror both" ( "Bildschirm spiegeln" )
Select only one "Main Monitor" "Haptbildschirm"
Now deselect again "Mirror both" ( "Bildschirm spiegeln" )"
Make sure again only select one "Main Monitor" "Haptbilschirm"
As I said already above. Only when the 2nd monitor is integrated with the
xfce-"desktop" environment, it makes sense to test applications using both monitors.
Just check whether you can move an desktop icon from one monitor
desktop onto the other.

Re: second screen bug
Was für ein Computer ist das ... Laptop oder PC ... Rechner Geschwindigkeit, RAM, Prozessor, 64bit oder 32bit?
Hast du in den Display/Bildschirm Einstellungen schon mal versucht mit nur einem einzigen Display auszukommen? Erst mal den Laptop Bildschirm erkennen lassen, dann den Zweiten einstellen, gefolgt vom Laptop Bildschirm ... gar nicht benutzen. Ich hatte in der Vergangenheit eine Maschine die lediglich nur ein einziges Display erkennen konnte. Zwar hatte ich die Möglichkeit ein Zweites Display anzuschließen, aber wegen meiner minderwertigen Grafik Karte bedeutete das, dass es lediglich möglich war egal welchen der beiden Bildschirme zu benutzen, nur nicht beide zusammen.

What kind of computer is this ... Laptop or PC ... Calculator speed, RAM, processor, 64bit or 32bit? Have you tried in the display / screen settings ever with only a single display to get along? First let the laptop screen recognize, then adjust the second, followed by the laptop screen ... do not use. In the past, I had a machine that could only recognize a single display. Although I had the option to connect a second display, but because of my inferior graphics card meant that it was only possible to use which of the two screens, but not both together.
