I don't think that is supported on the dxr3/H+ card. Framebuffer was never
implemented for this card as far as I know. It's just an mpeg decoder card.

It is even possible to play other vidoe formats through the card using xine
(mplayer also). These video's will be reencoded on the fly to mpeg1 and than
send to the mpeg decoder on the card.
It is possible to get a menu kind of system also on this card using mms
