  • Hollywood+ decoder and DualHead 2nd CRTC?

    I'm considering buying a G400 and wondered if what I'm thinking of is possible.

    I have a Hollywood+ DVD decoder that I use for occasional TV-out and some viewing on my monitor (TV is 20", monitor is 19" and newer and sharper). Is it possible for me to use the 2nd dualhead connector on the G400 to feed into the DVD decoder, so that I can run my non-DVD work off the first connector and switch my monitor cable to the DVD card only when I want to run DVDs? This would let me do my work on the first head with no pass-through degradation and switch the monitor cable to the H+ card only when I wanted to run DVDs. Also, can the second connector run at anything over 60 Hz refresh?

    Thanks!
