Re: [mythtv-users] TV resolution

2005-02-28 Thread Ashu Desai
Thanks, but I still have the problem about the scan settings. There is
a black frame on all 4 sides and that may be because of the higher
than necessary resolution settings. How do I change that?

Someone suggested the following:
 /usr/bin/nvidia-settings-1.0-6629

Does anyone know if changing the setting to 800 x 600 would help and
if so; how to get a more TV like color for my box?

Thanks,

 Hello all,
 I am a newbie here and just set up a MythTV a few days back. I am
 using nVidia FX 5200, a Hauppauge PVR-250 (980) and my CPU config is:
 650 MHz, 384 Mb RAM (100 MHz bus).
 
 Somehow when I watch Live TV, there's a blue frame on the left side
 which comes on the TV screen; besides the black frame on all 4 sides.
 After talking with my friend, it seems that it's maybe because my TV
 settings are not on 800x600 but higher. I tried looking at the
 nVidia-settings file but I couldn't figure much out.
 
 Can anyone help me remove this problem? Any help is appreciated.
 
 Thanks,
 Ash.
 

I think the 'blue line' issue is separate from your resolution issues.
Although adjusting resolution and/or overscan may correct it for you.
This same problem occured on my MythTV setup after initial install,
and a quick search of the archives led me to a post that mentioned a
blue background behind my picture, which could be changed to black to
remove the lines. I don't remember the command, but it worked
perfectly in my case. Search the archives for 'xattr' and/or 'blue
line'.

Yeah, that was it. Thanks Phill.
Sorry if I confused anyone by spelling the command wrong.

I added this line to my /home/mythtv/.kde/Autostart/myth-load.sh
script, no more blue lines for me.

However, I don't want to confuse the issue further, so let me add this:
If you didn't follow Jarod's guide for the initial setup, I'm not sure
that you'll have the myth-load.sh script.
