[mythtv-users] NVidia TV-Out in 800x600??

[jasonmiller at micron.com]

Are you using an NVIDIA Tv-Out card?  I noticed the same thing when messing around with my TV-Out resolution on a Geforce 256.  If you twiddle with HorizSyncEnd in the CRT Regs tab of nvtv can you fix it?  If you aren't using an NVIDIA card then just ignore my babble :)

On a related note, has anyone managed to come up with nvtv settings that will allow a full screen (no blue or black bars) setup in 800x600 mode on an NVidia TV-Out card?  I give it a good hour and couldn't manage to get mythtv to fill the screen.  640x480 works just fine but the picture seems to be a little crisper in 800x600 so I'd like to make the switch if I can.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Could it be a problem with xv ??


Ina desparate attempt to figure out the answer to my problem (see below) 
I used the "NO_XV" environment variable to disable XV while I used 
MythTV so I could take a screenshot.

Unfortunately, my problem did not seem to appear when I disabled XV.  
So, could this be an XV problem? Does anyone have any ideas of other 
ways I can narrow down the source of this problem? 

Here's some background on the problem:  When I start MythTV (which 
starts in fullscreen mode) it looks like a badly-shuffled deck of cards. 
In other words, the output is devided up into tiny pixel-high 
horizontall lines, and each of them is displaced. I can't really think 
of a better way to explain it.  If I keep the output in a maximized 
window mode, and move it slightly to the left or right, it fixes itself 
-- No more lines. But when I move it back towards the center, the lines 
get displaced again.
