Using Xv, interlaced output only outputs a single field. I'm pretty sure that even on my SDTV setup (480i directly out VGA port) that's what it's doing. If I play with -vo x11, it's much crisper. It *outputs* interlaced... just that the data it puts out is crap. -Cory -- * * Cory Papenfuss* * Electrical Engineering candidate Ph.D. graduate student * * Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University * * ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

I tried it as well, and I have the same problem. It's better with XvMC, but just barely. I get lots and lots of prebuffer pauses. For now - I've moved back to the 7676 build (which works flawlessly on my setup). I think I'll be doing the same.

Funny - tried it and had TERRIBLE playback (Jittery playback). Not using XVMC, just XV on a AMD64 with 5700.interested to see if anyone else tried it?

Added support for NVIDIA SLI. Please see the README for details. Added a new utility 'nvidia-xconfig', which is a commandline tool for updating X configuration files. Added support for new GeForce 6100, GeForce 6150 and GeForce 7800 GTX 512. Added manpages for 'nvidia-xconfig', 'nvidia-settings', and 'nvidia-installer'. Made UseEdidFreqs "on" by default; the NVIDIA X driver will use the valid HorizSync and VertRefresh frequency ranges from the EDID whenever possible. Added support for Stereo Digital Flat Panels such as the SeeReal and Sharp3D DFPs. Added HTML version of the README. Added support for static Rotation; see the "Rotate" X config option in the README. Improved stability on 64-bit Linux 2.6 kernels.
