The directfb compile switch does indeed only alter the player. But if you also compile with QT/Embedded then that will use a framebuffer. I can't remember whether QT/E will use directfb, but I suspect it doesn't, just the vanilla framebuffer. I wouldn't recommend trying to use dfb playback with X UI, the two systems don't play well. > Where in the source would I find the start of the UI-output > initialization so I can start debugging my build here and seeing where > it gets hung up, or fails in some way to start displaying to my TV via > my G400. Sorry, don't know the code that well. Maybe you'd be better on the -dev list for that one. Cheers, Martin.
