 IIRC HDTV supports 50Hz and 60Hz in the spec.

You're right.


  I understood that xorg doesn't use modelines. Which is correct?

 You can use modelines and sometimes you must (for TV output). But you
 don't have to for normal operation.


I have to use a modeline to get my TV to accept [EMAIL PROTECTED], using 
nvidia's
9631 driver. While my also manual states PC input over DVI is not
accepted it still does, so OP might be lucky.

Since OP's xorg.log states there's no valid modeline it might be
useful to play with modelines, perhaps something like:

Modeline [EMAIL PROTECTED] 143.55 1920 1952 2496 2528 1080 1103 1112 1135

[Freevo-users] Appletrailers in 1.7.0

2007-03-01 Thread Michel Hoogervorst

Maybe a stupid question but...

In the changelog I see:
New apple trailers plugin (disabled by default)

So, I thought lets try it... but I can't find it in the Freevo package?
How do I enable this?

It's in the contrib directory, in the source directory do:

cp -a contrib/video/plugins/appletrailers/* src/video/plugins/

Re: [Freevo-users] Weather menu entry is not translated

2007-03-01 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi Guys

  In the FreeVo main menu the entry Weather remains in english, no matter 
  what I try.
  name = _('Wheather') 
 Sorry I meant _('Weather')
 No one an idea what's wrong here ?
 
The problem was that the entry was marked as fuzzy.
Here are some changes for the german freevo.po file ( Version 1.7 )

  Would something like this work?

  Option ModeValidation NoDFPNativeResolutionCheck

Unfortunately, that Modeline doesn't work.  I believe it's because the 
pixel clock of 148.35 is higher than the maximum of 135 Mhz.

Here are some links that may help.
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xorg_HDTV

What the pages say is that it can be difficult to get the timings
correct and HDMI can be fussy about the ModeLines.
One thing I noticed is:

 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0)
 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): 135.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS
 (II) NVIDIA(0): Mode Validation Overrides for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0):

which means that nvidia driver thinks that you are connecting to a DFP
(digital flat panel) as opposed to a TV. I'm wondering if a HDTV is a
digital flat panel or a TV. I would guess that a DFP is correct, which
means that the ModeLines will work.

One of the howtos said that when starting X add -- -logverbose 6 to
that startx command line for more detailed information about why
modlines are not being accepted.

Great work, thanks.

I would appreciate it if you add a tracker item for this then your work
will be both mentioned in the change log and credited to you in the next
release. This link takes you straight there.
