applications depending on xine or using the phonon-backend-xine backend in
KDE are currently having problems since features such as videosettings in
dragonplayer and bangaraang aren't working. As reported to me there are 2
options how to enable this either via software rendering or hardware as far
as it is able to. Currently this is managed via the hardware option.
Unfortunately right now only hardware rendering is enabled but doesnt work
on every piece of graphics-hardware. As this is a feature bug and reported
here : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=563265
For reference, here's the conversation in #xine on freenode:
xxtjaxx Hi i am using xine as my favourite backend for phonon and its
quite good. But recently on the debian (squeeze/sid) package
things such as changing the hue or saturation are not working can
this be something that happens when you have special build
options?
_ds_xxtjaxx, see what xvinfo reports.
xxtjaxx _ds_: I havent had a dive at such things before would you be so
kind and tell me what I should actually look for?
_ds_See what XV_* controls are reported for the first adaptor listed.
* _ds_ is assuming that Xv is being used…
xxtjaxx I do not actually know what it is but: http://pastebin.ca/1734099
_ds_There you go: no XV_HUE, no XV_SATURATION…
_ds_What hw, which driver?
_ds_(hmm, actually, looks like there are two Xv adaptors there)
xxtjaxx Its a nv card
xxtjaxx _ds_: is this something to change at build time?
_ds_No.
xxtjaxx so it is a hw issue not xine?
_ds_Hardware or the X driver for it.
xxtjaxx thanks for the help!
_ds_You can use the eq2 video post-processing plugin, though.
_ds_(That does it all in software.)
xxtjaxx And that I can do how?
_ds_Wherever the post-plugin chains are configured.
_ds_(Don't ask me; I don't use phonon.)
xxtjaxx I dont do anything special with it myself (just using it) but
thanks though
* xxtjaxx has quit (Remote closed the connection
