Here is an excerpt from the latest ATI Catalyst driver released today,
note point 3.
The following section provides a brief description of known issues
associated with the latest version of ATI Catalyst™ Linux software
suite. These issues include:
* There is no support for video playback on the second head in dual head
mode. Further details can be found in topic number 737-26985
* Desktop corruption may be noticed when dragging the overlay/video when
using dual-display mode. Further details can be found in topic number 737-29578
* A black screen may be observed on some hardware when switching to the
console or leaving the X window system when a Vesa framebuffer console driver
is used. Further details can be found in topic number 737-30687
* Video Playback may display wrong colors and additional shadow images when
cropping or expanding a video file using a video player that utilizes the
XVideo extension
Apparently ATI considers this a bug worthy of their attention, although
from what I know the issue is not an exclusively ATI issue.
