Unfortunately, my card is just a monohead with 16MB. But
AFAIK, you wouldn't be able to, since the Linux drivers don't
support that (I guess that this is due to the damn Macrovision
rights).
I've tried something similar to that with my notebook, which
has an ATI Mobility LT board with TV Out and while playing
DivX in Windows to the TV was fine (it was something that I
had captured from a VHS tape and it seemed like the tape),
under Linux I can only get the text-mode to play right on the
TV.
