"-vo directfb" uses the backend scaler (ordinary video overlay). Unfortunately the multi application core is missing an automated cleanup which leads to a black screen even if mplayer died. This problem will be addressed very soon (if not today). "-vo dfbmga" uses the second head TV-Out on Matrox G400/G450/G550. But this is probably not what you want. > - How do I get correct modelines for fbset?

Displaying PAL on a monitor should be done at 50 or 100 Hz. You may find some more useful modes in the fb.modes located in the DirectFB source tree. -- Best regards, Denis Oliver Kropp .------------------------------------------. | DirectFB - Hardware accelerated graphics | | http://www.directfb.org/ | "------------------------------------------" Convergence GmbH -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe directfb-users" as subject.
