"Theater Mode" isn't a function of the card, it's a function of the drivers. It's been in the Catalyst drivers for quite some time (years?), What version of the drivers are you using? The newest are Catalyst 3.7 - though I'm still working off of the 3.6s without any trouble.
Are you sure you don't see Theater Mode in the video card's Display Properties|Settings|Advanced's "Overlay" tab?

I believe it the way MC displays it's videos to secondary monitors.
I just played a 720 x 480 avi file that I captured with Adobe Premiere.
When I play the video thru Adobe Premiere it centers the display as it should. However, when I play the same video file with MC it's offset to the right side showing black on the left hand side.

Yeap Nothing there! I don't see Catalyst anywhere.
The videos look great just not centered.

Scott I understand how overlay works. I had an ATI card with a Catalyst driver for overlay settings. The problem I had with overlay was that evertime I wanted to navigate within MC while a music video was playing it would stop displaying on my TV. I like this card because it allows MC to shoot out to a secondary monitor instead of the overlaying method allowing me to jump around with MC.
sraymond:
So what version are your video drivers?
If they're not ATI's Catalyst, you should probably upgrade as a first step. ATI's website (http://www.ati.com) has 'em.
