[Freevo-users] geforce 4 mx and tv-out :)
hey @ all! after my last post here, i decided to buy me a geforce 4 mx and now i have a setting in nvidia-settings to change the tv-overscan parameters. i created a nvidia-settings-rc file, but i cant load it on boot with the gui (nvidia-settings) i can change the overscan, but not with nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc -l whats wrong? maybe i have to use the TVOverScan Option in /etc/X11/XF86Conf, but where do i have to place it there? in screen or i monitor? greetz and thank you andieh --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

I'm quite happy with this card for progressive output. If you deal a lot with interlaced video you'll be disappointed, however. with the gui (nvidia-settings) i can change the overscan, but not with nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc -l What driver version are you using? i'm using current version 1.0.7667-2 Check that /etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc contains: 0/TVOverScan[TV-0]=25 yupp, is included when i start nvidia-settings, it shows me overlay of 17. dont have to change anything, only click on it and the screen changes to fullscreen without borders... i dont know whats wrong, aahh! maybe i have to use the TVOverScan Option in /etc/X11/XF86Conf, but where do i have to place it there? in screen or i monitor? No, AFAIK TVOverScan is obsoleted since nvidia-settings was included. --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

Re: [Freevo-users] geforce 4 mx and tv-out :)
ok, i think, i know know, whats wrong i'm using xfce4 as my displaymanager and start freevo with this line in /opt/xfce4/etc/xfce4/xinitrc #xftaskbar4 xfdesktop #xfcalendar freevo #/etc/freevo/nvidia when i start /etc/freevo/nvidia (which include /usr/bin/nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc -l --display 0:0) right after freevo, command doesnt work. when i start freevo without my script, i can change the overlay via ssh. but where do i have to start my little programm, so that it will work? any ideas? greetz and thank you andieh On Saturday 23 July 2005 15:30, Karl Lattimer wrote: On Sat, 2005-07-23 at 15:39 +, Andreas Fürtig wrote: hey @ all! after my last post here, i decided to buy me a geforce 4 mx and now i have a setting in nvidia-settings to change the tv-overscan parameters. i created a nvidia-settings-rc file, but i cant load it on boot OK to load on boot you need something like this DISPLAY=:0 nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc -l As you need to instruct the program where to find the display with the gui (nvidia-settings) i can change the overscan, but not with nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/.nvidia-settings-rc -l I created the rc file in ~/.nvidia-settings-rc then copied it out to my freevo folder. the -l option loads the config file and exits.

Instead for desktop users nvidia introduced with the 6000 series drivers nvidia-settings, if you get into X and run nvidia-settings you can change the overscan interactively the settings will be saved and you can re-load them using nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/nvidia-settings -l your config file may differ in location, generally it is saved to ~/.nvidia-settings-rc, i've put mine in the freevo directory simply because that is where i store all of my freevo settings. Hope this helps.

[Freevo-users] copy files from sdcard
Hi all! I have a little idea. it would be very nice, if there be a plugin to copy files from sd card on hard drive. for example pictures from a digital cam. i think about to write my own plugin, but first i want to ask, if somebody tried this before... the other part is that i dont understand anything if a take a look on the example plugin code... i only search for a sample plugin, that shows me how to make a symbol like the cdroms for the sdcard. a submenu entry like copy files (the python code is very simple i think for me) the functions for themselfs are very easy to understand for me, but i dont know how to write them down in one plugin. when i look at the plugin sample, i see a file with hundreds of codelines. does anybody of you have a very small sample file for me? as i say before, i only need a submenu entry in the image menu and the thing with the sd-medium... thanks a lot for some help (and sorry bout my very bad english) good night andreas fuertig --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
