I'm still having trouble getting this all working. I used
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?postid=818661 to get me
through the setup, without avail. --opengl-all doesn't seem to be a
valid option? Or I can't find anything about it. --hud works however.
Firstly, what I did manage to get working.
Starting from a bare terminal:
X
DISPLAY=:0.0 matchbox-window-manager (matchbox has a built in
composite manager, making xcompmgr redundant)
DISPLAY=:0.0 xsetroot -cursor emptycursor emptycursor
vdr-sxfe --verbose xvdr://127.0.0.1 --video=xv --audio=alsa
--aspect=16:9 --lirc --fullscreen --hud 2 ~/output.log
This works, with the only exception that the OSD is a small and only in
the left quarter of the screen. Acceptable even I suppose, though
ideally a centered OSD would be nice. I read on the forum topic that
others had the same problem, but never clearly found a solution.
So I then decided to move this to my .xinitrc;
matchbox-window-manager
vdr-sxfe --verbose xvdr://127.0.0.1 --video=xv --audio=alsa
--aspect=16:9 --lirc --fullscreen --hud 2 ~/output.log
(I have tried it with and without xcompmgr inbetween/before there too,
doesn't matter)
Now, the X server starts, matchbox starts, vdr-sxfe seems to start
without error, but I only get a black screen. No sound, no response to
input.
adding aterm -e infront of vdr-sxfe makes vdr-sxfe start normally again,
but not in an opengl window.
changing my .bashrc to load as from the bare terminal (e.g. just start X ).
I tried several plenty of other combinations, but I just can't get it to
work :S
would have been loads easier if vdr-sxfe would simply act as the most
minimalistic window manager by itself and create the hud window itself.
Anybody got any idea's where to take it from here?

FYI, xineliboutput provides three different OSD implementations:
xinelib, composite HUD, and opengl HUD. For example the composite HUD
OSD is drawn directly onto transparent window located exactly over the
(xine-lib powered) video window and therefore is completely
independent from the actual video decoding library.
I'm curious as to how you got the composite and opengl HUD's working, I
have been far from successful. It appears to just not work at all :S
Both are working. You need a compositing manager like xcompmgr or compiz
for the first possibility, or the option --opengl-all (not sure about
correct typing for the second possibility.
i'll try --opengl-all then; i have xcompmgr installed, i do have a very
bare install however, i use aterm -e to launch the client, with aterm
being my 'window manager'.
