Another issue is that if i want to project videos they are only
displayed in my monitor and not in the projection, it only shows a blue
square there. I know in windows you solve this by setting the projection
as main monitor, then the blue square is in the laptop monitor, but the
projection gets the video.
probably a problem with the XV overlay port. I don't have much knowledge
on this, but either:
- type xvinfo and check the port number of the Video Overlay of the
video out connector, then configure your player to send the video
there.
for example in mplayer you can do it like this:
mplayer -vo xv:port=12345 stuf.ogg
There is probably a way to tell X which port is the default XV port,
but I don't know how ...
or...
- use a video driver that is not dependant on XV, for example x11, gl,
...
for example in mplayer again:
mplayer -vo x11 stuff.ogg
hurray! it works! i did xvinfo and got loads of stuff but then
Adaptor #1: "Radeon Textured Video"
number of ports: 16
port base: 74
so i tried
$ mplayer -vo xv:port=74 bisectriz.m2v
and it is printed both in my laptop and the screen.
thanks!!!
