What I did is to turn off display-mirroring, put AstroIIDC's preview window on the beamer while keeping the control window on the laptop screen, hiding the dock, and setting the beamer to a very low resolution (... 640 x 480, thus keeping the AstroIIDC zoom at 100%).

One question: If the camera (Point Grey Grasshopper 20S4M) supports 1624x1224 at 30fps, will Astro IIDC display it in the live view with this resolution?

That depends on how big your monitor is and what scaling you tell Astro IIDC to display it at. If it doesn't fit inside, then the scroll bars will be enabled and you can parts of the total image around. In Full size or "Scrolled" / cropped  size is the least CPU / GPU intensive.

HTH..
