Duncan,

is audio/video in sync with this patch? I'm still using xine due to this.

to be honest I've no idea, it seems to be but I only tested it for a few minutes. Wasn't too happy with the difference in quality, which is marginal but noticeable. It patch is just a fix for the changed interfaces in mplayer from the original player.

My real goal is to see if it's possible to use the ivtv frame buffer for freevo and this is one step on the way.

The TV out quality from modern PCIE graphics cards is really not good, whereas the picture quality from ivtv frame buffer is really good.

Attached is an update of the ivtv-0.4.0/misc/MPlayer-1.0pre7try2-ivtvosd.diff for the current cvs version.

I removed the change to mplayer.c because I wasn't sure exactly what it was trying to do and it wouldn't compile with it.

Usage:
mplayer -vo ivtv -ao alsa:device=hw=0.0 test.mpeg

Quality test:
cat test.mpeg > /dev/video16

BTW
1) the audio does not get redirected to the s-video breakout cable.
2) And I don't think that the quality is quite as good as the cat command.
Both of these could be incorrect mplayer usage
