[Freevo-users] Freevo,DirectFB,G400 - Can't get Freevo to display
Title: Freevo,DirectFB,G400 - Can't get Freevo to display Hello all, I can't get Freevo to display when trying to use dfbmga. This is actually two separate issues? 1) Both the directfb and the dfbmga drivers work fine when running mplayer from the console ('mplayer -vo dfbmga foo.mpeg' or 'mplayer -vo directfb foo.mpeg'); however, within local_conf.py when I set: MPLAYER_VO_DEV = 'dfbmga' or MPLAYER_VO_DEV = 'directfb' and then run Freevo and try to play a movie, all I get is a perpetual blank screen without audio. 2) Within freevo.conf when I set: display = directfb or display = dfbmga and try to start Freevo, I just get an error about pygame not finding the video device. I'm trying to output Freevo and everything to my TV using the second head on my G400. Any help with these matters will be greatly appreciated. -Andrew Jergens ERROR FROM #2 ABOVE: begin error -- Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added ('/mnt/cdrom', '/dev/cdrom', 'CD-1') Can't find lsdvd.
