Does it run as the same user every time?

If so, please continue, maybe you > tell me more how I could look for the actual register values... You need to use the register dump program under Windows. Unfortunately it only works under Win9x. http://platan.vc.cvut.cz/~vana/maven/index.html Note that I did some dumping myself at some point and those are the values used by DirectFB. I'm pretty sure that the values are correct so I'm not sure why the RGB_EN misbehaves. Maybe we're writing the registers in the wrong order... > >>4.

Do you know if there's some real the difference between composite and scart-composite? -- Ville Syrj�l� [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sci.fi/~syrjala/
