I have a program running that within the program
I run system("cat /dev/video | mplayer -noconsolecontrols -fs - &");
to start playing the TV.
Then when I want to stop the TV I issue
system("killall mplayer");
Thinking at this point I would get the normal screen back.
I do not I get a black screen. I have to do CTL_ALT_F1 to switch
to text and the CTL_ALT_F7 to switch back. then
everything is normal on the screen.
Is there a better way to do this? so the screen is not messed up.
Thanks,
Jerry
