MythTV can be made to fit by using the GUI X/Y size and displacement options. Other applications need to support something similar, or they will run off of the screen. Alternatively, you can try to use a window manager that will pad windows and make them fit, but this may cause some problems (I was doing this with ratpoison, only to find out that while my windows fit the screen, I sometimes ended up with black borders around my TV/recorings).
Sounds like you're using Xv instead of the MPEG-2 decoder. The Xv support requires that some MPEG-2 be played through the MPEG-2 decoder before it will work (I do it in rc.local). Otherwise you will get a still picture of garbage. -- Joe --- Christopher Sink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all.
