There is a patch that can modify the firmware of certain older iBooks and iMacs so they support “Desktop Spanning” (note all newer Mac’s support this natively). This will allow you to play videos on the 2nd output while the main LCD screen shows MegaSeg. Apple’s PowerMacs and PowerBooks have the dual screen feature standard. You can download the patch and test it out. A list of supported systems is on their site. This 3rd party patch is not supported by Apple.
