I am playing with some of the new work that Ville Syrj�l� contributed to DirectFB as of late to support the second head of the Matrox G400 in TV-Out mode. I am excited to say the least about these developments.
I have put matrox-crtc2 and matrox-tv-standard=ntsc into my /etc/directfbrc and am using both mplayer with the dfbmga driver and the dfbtv test app that Billy Biggs wrote as my test applications. What I am finding is that the picture is "too tall". That is, the top and bottom of the picture is off the top and bottom (respectively) of my television screen. So to give an example, during playback with mplayer, I only see the very bottom (like the last raster line) of the OSD in the top left corner showing the time played. If I use dfbtv and put, say, CNN on, I only see the very top of the scrolling text banner across the bottom of the screen. Any ideas why this is? Is there anything I can tune to bring the picture back into the viewable area of my television screen? b. -- Brian J. Murrell
