The image is displayed without problems due to the acceleration being available on the
first head but some of the frames get displayed on the second head in the same resolution
so that the video can be seen there, too, albeit only in a flickering way. This way, of
course, it is not possible to use the display on the second head because it is constantly
disrupted.

BTW (another bug), this video driver makes the mouse pointer disappear on both heads in
fullscreen mode, even the option "-nograbpointer" does not change that.
