Hi all! i like freevo and everything works very fine for me for over a year now. but there is one small thing that i dont like, and thats those black borders on my tv-out. i know, that it is something with the overscan option in xfree config files, but i dont know, what to change. it doesnt work for me and i dont know, what i do wrong. does anybody of you know a good site with documentation about this thing, or does anyone else uses a geforce and doesnt have those borders? -- heres my /etc/X11/XF86Config Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "AGP" Screen "Screen TV" 0 0 InputDevice"Mouse1" "CorePointer" InputDevice"Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" ModulePath "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/" FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" # Load the glx module.

[Freevo-users] G450, directfb and flickering
Hi all, while your on this subject has anyone suffered from flickering using a g450 tvout with directfb? Are there any tricks I can pull in software to get rid of this? I remember the matrox windows app had some setting for flicker. I've googled around and had a look through the archives but haven't solved this one yet. Any help appreciated, John --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the 'Do More With Dual!' webinar happening July 14 at 8am PDT/11am EDT.

[Freevo-users] Re: using DirectFB instead of mga_vid?
mike lewis wrote: Also, are people holding off on the dfbmga? Are all the G400 users hanging back on mga_vid for mplayer and hence using kernel 2.4? (I had an mga_vid for 2.6 but it was an unofficial hack) I use vdr-xine for tv playback. I havn't found any reports of vdr-xine working on df_xine so thats one reason why I'm having back, although I do run 2.6 with mga_vid, with no stability problems. Yes it works, I also have a G400 DH. I only still have some tearing sometimes (I can't tell now if it's because of deinterlacing where on TV-out video shouldn't actually be deinterlaced, fiesl-parity, sync or pixel format), and also, for some strange reason, SPDIF passtrhough of AC3 broadcasts crash df_xine (but not VDR, like in the case of softdevice for example). Also, zoom. does df_xine have zoom capabilities? I don't think it Haven't tried that, I'd be very happy if I hadn't that tearing and the AC3 passhrough issue (which wasn't before, and now also affects softdevice, but not mplayer for example, might be an ALSA-related issue, don't know). does and this is another reason why I hold off. I have a 4:3 tv and i like to zoom a few steps in when wathcing widescreen format content. You could give it a try.
