What two-head video card can play a HD video on a secondary monito

Hello All!
What two head video card can play High Definition video on a secondary
monitor in the extended desktop mode? I saw in MS Knowledge Base and on the
Internet that most of two head video cards reduce speed on the extended
desktop.
Does Windows Vista Media Center run slower on the secondary monitor in the
extended mode?
Is there any video player program which runs on the secondary monitor in the
extended mode as fast as on the primary monitor?
Can anyone run two monitors in the mirror mode in their two different native
resolutions?
How to make Windows Vista Media Center component run on the second monitor
in the extended mode always?
I want to buy a video card with outputs for two monitors and connect its
d-sub output to my HDTV Samsung 32R71B and use it as a secondary monitor in
the Extended mode in its native resolution 1366x768 or 1360x768. The primary
monitor should remain in its native resolution 1280x1024. I want to watch
video files on the 32R71B and control the playback from a remote control.
Which remote control should I buy?
Best regards,
Dima
