How can I start a VLC instance from python bindings on a specific display?

Question

I want to code a snippet / module in python that opens up a VLC player on a specific display / monitor and plays a specific file.

I use the package python-vlc, and I succesfully managed to play a video file using the package:

    import vlc

    vlc_options = "--embedded-video --no-audio --fullscreen"
    vlc_instance = vlc.Instance(vlc_options)
    # vlc.Instance.url = filepath

    player = vlc_instance.media_player_new()
    player.set_mrl(filepath)
    player.set_fullscreen(True)
    player.play()

    while True:
        pass

I searched everywhere in the documentation but I did not find anything useful, on how I could choose a specific display to start the media instance on.

And neither succeeded using the CLI commands:

What I found is the following: To some extent you might have some luck to control this by going to Tools --> Preference --> Video --> Fullscreen Video Device --> Here you choose the display you want in VLC software. It depends as well on the output mode. You need to try them.
