I sent the following message to the list a while ago, but it seems stuck to await mod. approval, since I attached an image and it was too large, so I am sending it again without the image.. If anyone is interested in the image, please send me an email and I will send it to you.
Here's my message: ----------------------------------- Hi, wanting to check out, if my VIA EN12000EG could finally do nicely unscaled video-out like my VIA MII6000, I wanted to check out the experimenatal branch, as I understood, this patch should be included now.. Not knowing how to achieve that I tried: svn co http://svn.openchrome.org/svn/branches/experimental_branch openchrome and got some files.. I ran./augtogen.sh and compiled it and ran make install. Now I suppose to have the experimental branch running, but sadly choosing 720x576 (log says it is being used and in my VT1622ModeIndex it also shows up) looks as scaled as with the former driver (trunk). So I am not sure, wich driver is in use and I have no idea how to verify, since I couldn't find any hints in my xorg log. Days later... So I tried different modes and found 720x576Over to give me a result, which I would consider unscaled. When captured with a professional DV recorder the picture uses all the lines and almost all the width. In my opinion the width is not really important, since the digital picture is being converted to analog anyway. The lines are a totally different story, since they must stay intact 1:1, meaning, when I display a picture wich consists of only black and white lines the re-captured picture must consist of a black and a white field. This is exactly what the 720x576Over mode achieves! Bravo! Since everybody is always looking for that mode, I thought, I let you know! A sample picture is attached..
