Hello Regeesh,
The PCI-5431 would be the best solution for you, but it's somehow expensive. You can check the specs of the board by going to the link below:

I guess the easiest solution would be to just use a video card signal that is a couple hundred bucks and use it to show the video you have in a TV.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Hope this helped,
LA

Most NVidia video cards which support TV output are capable of routing any "full screen" video to the TV out. What this *actually* means is that if a video source is playing anywhere on the desktop, it will be enlarged and shown full-screen on the TV output, leaving the video in a window on the windows desktop.
I use this feature to watch DVDs (or I did, until I got a DVD player... I'm a poor student 😞 ). All you have to do is use a video player which supports hardware overlay. Just about any video player should support this either by default or with a setting inside the player. Windows Media Player does it by default. The full-screen output is configured using the "Advanced..." setting under the Display Control Panel -> Settings tab. It might take a little toying to figure it out at first, but I think this should serve your purposes quite well.
You can probably find an NVidia video card with TV out for US$50 or so if you look at some online merchants. The drivers are really just amazing in terms of what it lets you configure.
Good luck,
Dave

Regeesh,
I am interested in the program that you wrote. I am trying to do exactly what you have questioned here. I need to output a video file to the secondary moniter or TV out of a video card. Could you send me your program? The email you can reach me at is monzue2@hotmail.com
Thanks,
Ben
