I am a very inexperienced linux and C user so please forgive the 'dumb'
questions
I have been building my myth box and set-up for a while and it never ceases
to amaze me what a great project this is.
I am running an Epia M1000 with a DVB-t nova card and the system is working
extremely well. My one nagging problem has been improving the video quality
as much as possible.
I am very keen to remove the VT1622 tv chips deflicker filter. I have
compiled XFree and the CVS unichrome drivers and everything works extremely
well. I am using only 20-25% cpu with the system running as the front and
backend. I see that Terry Barnaby has put into CVS a deflicker mod in the
recent CVS, but I can't quite work out wether that means that the deflicker
filter is turned off.
There is some logic in via_mode.c which appears to turn the filter on or off
based on reading another register ???
How can I be sure that the flicker filter is turned off ?
=============
I have also tried to apply the color OSD patch, but I get lots of rejects,
and the patch fails to apply cleanly. I am guessing that this is just that
the CVS tree has change a little in recent days since the EPIA osd patch ?
Is there any easy way around this, or should I go back to CVS at the time
the EPIA OSD patch was issued ?
Thanks to anyone who can help
