AWSdS> Hi,
AWSdS> I have a PII 300, 198 Ram, a Studio PCTV pci and a Voodoo3 3000 AWSdS> agp. Everything works fine under MDK 8.1. Once I was suggested to add AWSdS> "load v4l" in my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, so I'd be able to see TV via xawtv AWSdS> in total full screen mode, since I use 1024x768 resolution. AWSdS> However, it didn't work. When I call xawtv, my TV view came out AWSdS> of the xawtv window, very messy and my system almost lock, getting very AWSdS> slow. AWSdS> Without v4l, using mplayer I can see TV in total full screen. So, AWSdS> is it a xawtv issue? Or how to fix this problem about "load v4l"? Any AWSdS> suggestion? AWSdS> Many thanks in advance, - The correct syntax should be Load "v4l" - Have you run "v4l-conf" ?. Better run it while X-windows is active. Just open a terminal in X and run it, it should define the resolution etc. - Is mplayer changing resolution? The thing in watching full screen, is a limitation of resolution, so mplayer might be changing resolution to let it be played in full screen, and this thing is not "what load v4l" does. - Xawtv may need some configuration. Guess it must be using Xv. Check the man page for "how" - This `Load "v4l"` is not totally supported by all the video cards, though if I remember it right, voodoo is supported. Guess you can find info at xfree86.org Onur Kucuk _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
