Ahh! Finally! I followed your directions (with the exception of using "geometry=720x480" for ntsc) and it works! The Directfb-0.9.19 looks like it did the trick.
The only problem i'm having now with the basic Freevo setup is that there is quite a bit of flicker in the SDL menus. Mplayer plays using dfbmga and looks awesome, but the Freevo menus are almost seizure-inducing. What settings should I tweak to fix this? I'm so close, thanks everyone for all the help. -Nick On Friday 25 July 2003 01:11 pm, Markus Schneider wrote: > Hello there, > > I can confirm that the SDL-Patch is no longer needed if you are using > DirectFB-0.9.19 (and you want to use TV-Out, of course). > > Some more hints to get it working: > > - compile DirectFB-0.9.19 (./configure;make;make install) > - compile SDL-1.2 (CVS tarball) (./configure;make;make install) > - unpack freevo-1.3.2.tgz > <http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/freevo/freevo-1.3.2.tgz?download> > (and replace runtime/dll/libSDL-1.2.so.0 with a link to your newly > compiled version that includes dfbmga-support, in my case > /usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0) > > my /etc/directfbrc: > > matrox-crtc2 > matrox-tv-standard=pal > primary-layer=2 > > my freevo.conf: > > chanlist = us-cable > display = dfbmga > geometry = 720x576 > jpegtran = ./runtime/apps/jpegtran > mplayer = ./runtime/apps/mplayer/mplayer > tv = pal > tvtime = ./runtime/apps/tvtime/tvtime > version = 2.0 > > Hope this helps some of you guys!
