ivtv0-fb: Framebuffer at 0xf5510000, mapped to 0xf9710000, size 1665k


compiled mplayer with IVTV support.

mediabox ~ # mplayer -vo ivtv test.mpg

then I can see the movie perfectly playing  but *Behind the Console* :(

mediabox ~ # ivtvfbctl --device=/dev/fb0 --globalalpha=off --localalpha=off  
--alpha=0
Framebuffer state:
  Global alpha:            ENABLED
  Local alpha:             ENABLED
  Global alpha value:      255

Framebuffer state:
  Global alpha:            disabled
  Local alpha:             disabled
  Global alpha value:      0

but the console is still in the middle of my screen :(
Tried many combinations of global an local alpha , but nothing ...
then I tried: 

mediabox~ # setterm -blank 1  -powersave  on
 
wait for a minute (don't know how to blank immediately) and WOW the console 
goes away, BUT ... thats not the solution ....

Why is ivtvfbctl ignorig me  ...

I am sure this is very simple, I am just missing something ..

Thank you for any help ...

m.
