</div>It's not. Usually this shows up when using the VDPAU slim profile,<br>
but since you say you are using Xv, it may also be a limitation when<br>
using softblend.<br>
<div><div></div><br></div></blockquote><div>Umm, okay.. It has worked before, so it's no hw-issue. I have tried many different combinations, ie. xvMC, libmpeg2, chromakey etc, but no improvement on the fading. Have not compiled VDPAU support at all... Also the tuning-in in general takes 5-6 secs, which is somewhat frustrating. The OSD comes first on a black background, stays for a few seconds. Then, when it should fade, the channel is tuned in and the OSD vanishes without fading... <br>
<br>..but, I should probably continue this discussion on another forum.<br><br>Just for added info, here's the logs from the frondend, though on normal log-level. It gives the timeline when going from main menu to watching TV:<br>
