Hi
I have an Ati Radeon 8500 card. I checked out the last cvs version of XFree86, compiled it and installed it. It works. The command xvinfo produces the following output: # xvinfo X-Video Extension version 2.2 screen #0 Adaptor #0: "ATI Radeon Video Overlay" number of ports: 1 port base: 59 operations supported: PutImage supported visuals: depth 24, visualID 0x23 depth 24, visualID 0x24 depth 24, visualID 0x25 depth 24, visualID 0x26 depth 24, visualID 0x27 depth 24, visualID 0x28 depth 24, visualID 0x29 depth 24, visualID 0x2a number of attributes: 4 "XV_COLORKEY" (range 0 to 16777215) client settable attribute client gettable attribute (current value is 0) "XV_BRIGHTNESS" (range -64 to 63) client settable attribute client gettable attribute (current value is 0) "XV_SATURATION" (range 0 to 31) client settable attribute client gettable attribute (current value is 16) "XV_DOUBLE_BUFFER" (range 0 to 1) client settable attribute client gettable attribute (current value is 1) maximum XvImage size: 2048 x 2048 Number of image formats: 4 id: 0x32595559 (YUY2) guid: 59555932-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 16 number of planes: 1 type: YUV (packed) id: 0x59565955 (UYVY) guid: 55595659-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 16 number of planes: 1 type: YUV (packed) id: 0x32315659 (YV12) guid: 59563132-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 12 number of planes: 3 type: YUV (planar) id: 0x30323449 (I420) guid: 49343230-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 12 number of planes: 3 type: YUV (planar) Which is supposed to mean that xv mode works. But each time I want to use it, I get a black box. So, is the xv mode working or not? And if not, why xvinfo produces all this stuff? Thanks in advance, Michaël P. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
