Oh dear, that's a shame :-( Can VIA not be persuaded to release the source for libddmpeg to you? > I don't know what VIA is going to do with the enhanced frame buffer > driver.

There's a newer one than that, here: http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=25&CatID=2580&SubCatID=101 This compiles with 2.6.11 (albeit with lots of warnings). I haven't tried loading it. I see they've changed the representation of the TV encoder config but I'm sure I can provide a patch for a nice 720x576 non-scaled mode. I'd be happy to take a look at that once you've got a working DirectFB-compatible framebuffer.
