Hmm not sure about Xfree 3.3.6 - but it should work.
Basic idea is this one.
Compile mga_vid - install in modules.
Create device mknod /dev/mga_vid c 178 0
(WARNING - contains code from mplayer mga_vid - and if you use mplayer -
it will work, however this will destroy usability of Xv hw overlay
so you would have to restart XFree server after using mplayer with mga
video driver!)
aviplayer is using non-destructive way for this - but Arpi doesn't want
to integrate this into a single common device :(... )
modprobe mga_vid
and start aviplayer - it should be auto detected.
Device is sending synchronization pulses so its giving precise timing.
hope this helps...
