I've been trying xineliboutput for the first time - looks like it will solve
all sorts of problems I've been having, if I can get over these ones....
Problem number 1:
If I start the plugin with :
vdr -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --video=xv --audio=alsa --remote=none"
I get a letterbox window in the middle of the gnome screen. So I tried:
-P'xineliboutput --fullscreen --local=sxfe --video=xxmc --audio=alsa
--remote=none'
This gives me the same as above, but with black borders filling the screen.
Still a much smaller picture than the full screen I get with vdr-xine.
Also, when I change channels (PVR with pvrinput plugin) the various channel
scaling leaves parts of the picture around the new "letterbox" image.
How do I set scaling? When I use vdr-xine, I start it with
"xine --fullscreen --hide-gui -V xv -A alsa -D --post vdr_video --post
vdr_audio vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes"
Problem number 2:
I have been using the mplayer plugin to play divx/xvid/mpeg movies. It's
rather clumsy though, as I need to kill xine and restart after (scripted) to
free up the xxmc/xvmc resources.
When I try and play an avi file with xineliboutput, I get stuttering video
and loads of the following:
bad_frame
[mpeg4 @ 0x125b4e4]header damaged
What does work well, which I'm VERY pleased with, is DVD playback. I've had
a long standing problem with intermittant audio stuttering - which seems to
be resolved with xineliboutput!
