Render window to video port?

Is it possible to redirect the rendering of a windows form to the video
port/overlay device of a video card? In my situation I must present the
contents of a window on an hdtv and I can't use a desktop clone trick
because there's going to be another application running that cannot
show up on the tv. Any ideas?
 
Can you extend the desktop onto the HDTV and restrict the one window to
it while restricting the other application to run on the main monitor?

I'm going to give that a try. The only downside is if one of the
applications doesn't remember which desktop it's supposed to run in, I
won't have programmatic control to fix it. I really need to isolate
each desktop so an application from the main one can't be dragged into
the hdtv one.
