Hello,
I've got an install of Debian sid (unstable) with Xfree 4.3.0.1, an nvidia
card and the latest builds of mplayer and xine. Neither can use the "xv"
extension. When I try, I get the following errors:
With mplayer:
Xlib: extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display ":0.0".
vo: X11 running at 1024x768 with depth 24 and 32 bpp (":0.0" => local display)
Xlib: extension "XVideo" missing on display ":0.0".
Sorry, Xv not supported by this X11 version/driver
******** Try with -vo x11 or -vo sdl *********
Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
With xine:
Xlib: extension "SHAPE" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "XVideo" missing on display ":0.0".
main: video driver <xv> failed
I know I could use the X11 or SDL video drivers, but they lack functionality
and performance; you really need the xv extensions for good video playback.
I read in an Mplayer HOWTO for Debian [1] that "in unstable xv might not work
properly as a video output".
How can I fix this?
Regards,
Tom
