As nobody knows what the registers are used to, you need to get the 
values from somewhere. So it means either Windows or Linux with the 
proprietary VIA driver. Once you got the values, or even better a set of 
values for different use cases (resolution, bitdepth, PAL/NTSC/HDTV, 
s-video/composite/RGB), you can learn enough on the registers to setup 
your own modes. For bonus point, you can write an userspace app that can 
setup the tv encoder(s) on the fly.
