I have a couple of G400s - one of which I have been meaning to put into my Myth box. Unfortunately now the good woman has her hands on it I'm not allowed to touch it lest I break it! So I can't say it works for me, but it's a pretty comprehensive guide. -----Original Message----- From: Bernd M�ller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 2 March 2005 5:48 a.m. To: [email protected] Subject: [mythtv-users] [ Matrox G400 TV-Out ] RGB Cable Hello; I've read much about the Matrox G400 (Max) an it's exquisite tv-out in this mailing-list. And some time ago i got such a card. But i'm not able until yet to get the tv-out work in a satisfactory way. I've tried all the specified ways how to connect the card (first and second head) via composite, svhs or the selfmade RGB cable (the simple one for tthe second head). At last i've gave up to configure X with directfb as it's seems to be very complicated. But now i've read in this list about an other RGB Cable with a little circuit inside: http://www.sput.nl/hardware/tv-x.html Is it possible to run the G400 with this RGB Cable at the first head? Does the G400 provide the nearby optimal pixelclock of 14.16 or maybe the optimal clock of 14.76? Is it possible to use the mentioned Modline "736x575i" 14.16 736 760 824 904 575 580 585 625 interlace -hsync -vsync Which X-driver i've to use? The one from matrox or the GPL one. Will this solution provide hardware acceleration (because of using first head of G400) and an optimal tv-out?
