[mythtv-users] Xv and blue screen with ATI 9200. (SOLVED)

FYI, adding:

    Option "OverlayOnCRTC2" "true"

To your ATI's Device section will force hardware overlay to the cloned
display. This allows you to do things like run your TV @ 720x480, which is
not supported when TV Out is the primary display in single mode.
