For example a movie playing on the speakers and another video playing (on a possibly different player/program) on my headphones.
Is it possible to do this in Windows 7?

1Am I correct in that you want to play 2 video/audio streams and have one go to the speakers and the other go to the headphones?– LDC3Sep 19, 2014 at 3:40

Thanks, yeah. So someone can watch a movie in the same computer but another display while I watch something else with my headphones in the main display.– Joan VengeSep 19, 2014 at 4:15

1There are some ways to do this. The most straight forward would be to tell your 2 video players to direct their audio to a certain output via their internal settings (most if not all video players allow this). For this I have to ask which two programs you plan to use– nixdaSep 19, 2014 at 5:58

Thanks I could use MPC-HC and kmp or all MPC. VLC would work too.– Joan VengeSep 19, 2014 at 16:17

This can be done in VLC. Just open your videos in separate windows and adjust the settings:
Open Tools -> Preferences (set Show Settings to All).
If you use DirectX, then go to Audio -> Output modules -> DirectX and Output device.
If you use Waveout, then go toAudio -> Output modules -> WaveOut and Select Audio Device.
Remember to press Save to save VLC settings and restart VLC after that to make sure changes are enable
(From VLC help "Change output device in case of multiple audio devices")
