if you have experiences with compiling your own kernel the howto http://www.sci.fi/%7Esyrjala/directfb/matrox-tv-out-howto isn�t that difficult...

I was going to try DirectFB later but wanted to start with the 'easy' way. And as you see there's already trouble...
I'll try with the matrox-TV-out-HOWTO tonight.

I have a G450 and it works fine...(after some
troubles).
First of all i have to know more about what you have
already done and what already works and what not
- Did you follow the instructions listed under
- Does mplayer work with -vo dfbmga?-------------------------------------------------------
If not follow the instructions in the link above.
They worked fine for me.
Be shure to use the latest mplayer(i suggest cvs!!!)
I had some troubles with older versions even v0.90 didn't work.
And entered this to enable TV-out:I did not need one of those commands at all. As far
matroxset -f /dev/fb1 -m 0 matroxset -f /dev/fb0 -m 3 matroxset -f /dev/fb0 -o 1 1
as i know these commands are for the g400 without directfb.
You have to use the directfb (dfbmga in mplayer)
tvout for your g450.
Sorry i dont't know because i did not use it.The last command gives the error: ioctl failed: Invalid argument
What does this mean?
settingsIf I don't enter the last '1' it says: Output mode is 128
Then I have tried a number of different fbset
but non of them with nice picture on the TV. Anyonevalues
with a PAL TV and G450 that can share his fbset
that works?
I just copied the fbmodes from directfb to /etc/fbmodes see link above
If you have managed to get mplayer to work with your
g450 and tv-out then and only then try to get freevo to get work.
I don't know if i did the easiest way to configure
freevo but it finally worked.
i took the source version of freevo and made all the
dependencies myself. make sure to use your own mplayer(cvs).
i compiled my own sdl but i do not know if this was
necessary.
configure freevo to use dfbmga
thats all.
i hope this helped cya, rudi
