Alas, still no luck.
I have pasted the relevant sections of my XF86Config file below. If anyone
has any advice for me, I'd really appreciate this. (I'm using an nVidia
MX4000 PCI card) Also, a new development is my picture is now grayscale.
No more color :(

Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] Mythbox hangs with TVOUT
Thanks Rick, I'll give that a try.
All I tried was the sample nVidia config file for X when I installed the
drivers. I'll take a look inside to be sure that it contains all the
settings.

Are you using the nvidia drivers? Do you have all of the nvidia
setting in the x config file. Instead of loading nv, load the nvidia
driver and set TVStandard and the TVOutFormat. I also needed to load
the ConnectedMonitor "TV" for my nvidia card.
I hope this helps

Hi All,
My Knoppmyth box works absolutely perfectly in
every respect (finally)
EXCEPT for the most important one :(
TVOUT just won't work.
To put it all in perspective. I have a P4 1.8GHz,
512Mb RAM all in an Aopen
XC Cube with onboard sound.
I've tried both a nVidia GeForce2 MX200 as well as
a nVidia MX4000 (PCI)
which both work really well in my lab using CRT /
LCD screens. As soon as I
use the TVOUT (composite on the MX200 and S-Video
with a converter to
composite on the MX4000) the box boots up
perfectly, but as soon as the
Frontend loads, it freezes. If I have a keyboard
plugged in, it's stone
dead and even num and caps lock doesn't turn on the
light. Without the
keybaord (using lirc) same thing happens. The
system doesn't respond to the
remote.
Unplug the TV, plug in the CRT and everything is
back to normal again.
The logical thing to think of first is the
XF86Config, but I'm doubtful that
the problem is there, because when the system
freezes, I can see (very
clearly) the frontend in all it's beauty, but it
just won't respond to any
inputs.
As an aside, while watching the boot process, I see
the frontend load and
it's immediately unresponsive, however, the hard
disk continues to work with
it's light flashing for about 10 seconds after
everything has locked up.
Also, I have exactly the same symptoms with using
either the vesa or the
"nv" drivers in my X config.
Has anybody else experienced something similar and
has anyone found a
solution? I'd really appreciate some pointers.
Thanks
Chris.
