I'm running gentoo (2004.2 CD) with kernel 2.6.7 with directfb and dvb support as modules. I have tv-out on the G400 with mga_vid (from mplayer).
mga_vid has nothing to do with DirectFB but I'll try to answer your questions anyway.
Sorry about that.. I'm new to this... :)
What I plan to do, is to run VDR with xine plugin, and use the tv output of the G400 to view DVB-S on my Widescreen TV...
(Ideally I would use fb0 as a regular console, and fb1 as video output).
I've just downloaded DirectFB CVS.
Which modules should I load to enable dualhead on the g400?
Is it possible to use some of the G400 hardware features to "aid" in decoding MPEG2 streams?
I'm a bit confuse about this, because I got the impression that there are about 3 different modules to enable tb out on the g400...
What is the best implementation (modules) for dualhead TVout?
When I play an interlaced mpeg2 video (with mplayer), I get some image problems when objects move horizontally.. I's like a "sawtooth-effect".. they seem to break up in large horizontal lines (odd and even)... (they don't break up line by line... but in blocks of several lines...)
It's probably due to scaling. You need to use a deinterlace filter.
the deinterlace filter is part of the player, right? (mplayer, xine,,..) which filters offer the best performance/quality ratio?
btw, if the image source is interlaced (MPEG2 DVB-S), and the destination (TV) also works in interlaced mode, how come we have to deinterlace the image in between?
Thanks for your answers... :)
