Hi,
I am new to freevo and trying to get it to work with debian unstable in
combination with a matrox g550 with tv out.
Which output driver is the best in case the box is dedicated to freevo
and no output to the first head is needed?
I tried my luck with dfbmga. Mplayer plays files with
mplayer -vo dfbmga <<file>>
without any problems and with good quality. But freevo does not do so
well: I get an error like this:
-->
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/freevo/osd.py", line 382, in

<--
My freevo.conf looks like this:
-->
chanlist = europe-west
display = dfbmga
geometry = 768x576
lsdvd = /usr/bin/lsdvd
mplayer = /usr/bin/mplayer
renice = /usr/bin/renice
setterm = /usr/bin/setterm
tv = pal
version = 2.1
<--
I am little bit confused ablout sdl and co. Do I need to compile them
myself?
Any hint is welcome! :)
Cheers,
- Thorsten
