Hi folks,
I'm trying to fix a problem playing mpegs under XFree86 with Xv extension, I'd
appreciate any hints to help me with this...
After using Xine player for some time he exits reporting BadAtom error from
XvShmPutImage (or XvPutImage):
X Error of failed request: BadAtom (invalid Atom parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 141 (XVideo)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 ()
Atom id in failed request: 0x2a0000b
Serial number of failed request: 5227
Current serial number in output stream: 5227
Calling another Xv client (like mplayer) triggers the same error.
The only way to get rid of that is restarting the X server. I'm currently running
4.1.0 but I had the same problems with 4.0.3. The driver is glint on a Permedia2
(firegl 1000 pro).
I tried Xv documentation but it doesn't mention BadAtom as one of the possible errors
for this funtion. Therefore I don't know why it happens as XvPutImage doesn't seems to
set/get any attribute value. Also, Xine is currently not setting any attribute at all
for the Xv driver.
Is this a problem with XFree86 or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Miguel Freitas
