Hi,

I’ve a fedora 4 with kernel 2.6.13 i’m always trying to find the best GFX card for movies and TV playback on a Tv set.

I planed to use df_xine with vdr because I don’t want to launch X.

Reading throught the mailing list message and the website documentation it seems that the matrox G400 are the best videocard for directfb.

I have now a G400 dual head, I ‘ve successfully installed the card on the AGP port in my mother board. I’ve connected the dedicated tvout wire to the vga-out 2 of the G400 and pluged the S-VIDEO in my tv set.

 

During all the boot phase there is no output on the tv. Then when I launch my script to initialise the matroxfb and to launch df_xine there is only garbage display on the tv.

Of course I’ve connected a CRT monitor to the vga-1 output of the G400, and the ouput is OK.

 

Here is the script I used to test my tv configuration

 

modprobe i2c-matroxfb

modprobe matroxfb_Ti3026

modprobe matroxfb_crtc2

modprobe matroxfb_maven

matroxset -f /dev/fb1 -m 0

matroxset -f /dev/fb0 -m 3

matroxset 1

alsactl -f /root/asound.state restore

df_xine http://127.0.0.1:3000/98#demux:mpeg-ts

 

 

Thanks,

 

Marc
