Unforunately, most of the tv-out and compoent out is undocumented, or we have limited documentation, but no real guid as to how everything needs to be programmed. One of the Gatos guys got regular tv-out working and Rune Peterson keeps a relatively up to date tv-out patch here: http://megahurts.dk/rune/tv_output.html that might be of some help. > > I did notice in your tvout patch: > #define RADEON_TV_DAC_CNTL 0x088c > -# define RADEON_TV_DAC_STD_MASK 0x0300 > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_BLANK (1 << 0) > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_HOLD (1 << 1) > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_PEDESTAL (1 << 2) > +# define RADEON_TV_MONITOR_DETECT_EN (1 << 4) > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_CMPOUT (1 << 5) <-- related? > # define RADEON_TV_DAC_BGSLEEP (1 << 6) > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_STD_MASK 0x0300 > +# define RADEON_TV_DAC_STD_NTSC (1 << 8) > # define RADEON_TV_DAC_RDACPD (1 << 24) > # define RADEON_TV_DAC_GDACPD (1 << 25) > # define RADEON_TV_DAC_BDACPD (1 << 26) > > Could RADEON_TV_DAC_CMPOUT be related to composite output or is it only for > the > TV-out encoder hardware? I'm not sure. On the newer r4xx hardware component output is handled by the tv-encoder.

Not really. Ati hasn't released any information about setting up the chip for component output. Perhaps you can dump the radeon registers in windows and compare how that driver sets things up, or perhaps the fglrx driver supports component out too and you could use the register dump tools from the r300 project.
