I may have misunderstood what you meant with frontends, but xineliboutput *can* be used with other xine frontends, such as xine-ui, without patching xine-lib. -- Anssi Hannula ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] DXR3?
I have a couple of SkyStar cards on a VDR server, running xineliboutput on an NVidia card using a VGA cable to my HDTV. I am seeing lagging, tearing and noticeable interlacing. Is it worth buying a DXR3 on ebay? -- Latest news on http://www.streetcredo.org.uk/rob Rob Davis ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

A dxr3 only decodes mpeg at standard resolution, it does it very well and with good quality, but it's of no use for HD. It also has many stability problems with the osd (it was designed to display dvd menus and subtitles, not a full-fledged, full-screen, full-color osd, so the vdr plugin pushes it to its limits and beyond).

Re: [vdr] Xineliboutput and G550
Thanks for the answers. I also got personal mail with patch for the DirectFB color problem. With DirectFB I could not get good enough deinterlace setup. And I could not solve the tearing problem with XV. But fortunately I got very good result with vidixfb video driver. /usr/bin/vdr-fbfe --video vidixfb --fullscreen --aspect=auto --post tvtime:method=Greedy2Frame,cheap_mode=0,pulldown=0,framerate_mode=full,use_progressive_frame_flag=1 --reconnect mode "1280x720-50" # D: 74.250 MHz, H: 37.500 kHz, V: 50.000 Hz geometry 1280 720 1280 720 32 timings 13468 212 448 20 5 40 5 hsync high vsync high accel true rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,8/24 endmode CPU load is about 35% with Athlon 2500+ XP-M. - Kimmo Petri Helin wrote: > On Nov 29, 2007 6:07 PM, Kimmo Taskinen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> My G550's DVI port is connected TV's HDMI.
