At first - sorry for my english, im a czech living in germany :)
I know this problem does acctualy not belong to this list, but I hope 
somebody can help me.
I have freevo 1.6.2 installed on a ubuntu box with xorg and only a TV 
attached via S-VIDEO.
Almost everything works perfect, but when playing videos (dvd, xvid, 
mpeg ...) the screen kind of flickers (seems like it was scrolling and 
is only noticable at scenes with fast movment). I suppose its a matter 
of the right modeline and/or frequencies in the xorg.conf file.
I already tried to set up a modeline for PAL 720x576 - the flickering 
was still there and freevo was not displayed right (like it was still in 
a 800x600 resolution).
Here some infos:
