I don't really know what this has to do with CDTV, since you're talking about
two different technologies here.  CDTV is CD based, and has full-motion video
off of a disk (I know only half screen, but C= has said they're working on
full screen...CDI still doesn't really have it either).  The DVI is a chipset
that reads compressed video off of your HD, WORM, etc.
 
BTW, have any of you ever seen a DVI screen?  The companies running FMVideo
off their hard disks for the Amiga had a nicer picture.  But then I guess
"it's not how a walzing bear waltzes, but that it waltzes at all."
