Hi!
When I launch MythTV I'm not able to see TV correctly, I get image doubled,
like the interlace mode is working but the two rendering is being done
sequencial in the screen, so getting image twice.
I configured Audio Rate maximum to 32000, but MythTV continues to say
"Opening audio device 'default'. ch 2(2) sr 44100".
Does any one have similar issue? If so what have done?
I've seen similar reports from users of ATI cards. Does this effect
happen if you choose a different deinterlacer or non-Xv playback
method?
Can you use the 'ati' X.org driver instead of the proprietary fglrx
driver from ATI and see if that makes a difference?
I do not know where I can choose a different deinterlacer or a non-Xv playback, can you provide-me some details?

Playback profiles in mythfrontend setup.

I have no experience with new ATI cards - at home I still use Radeon
9x00 devices for SDTV-only playback with the X.org radeon driver.

Regarding the late hour here I have to test getting to the regular X.org ati driver tomorrow.

Not a problem. You might find at the moment the fglrx has the best
support for your card, and correcting a bad configuration can omrpove
your video. Support for new ATI cards in the X.org driver improves all
the time now that they are releasing technical information, but
support is still "a work in progress" for the newest cards - see

Hi, this is a known bug with ATI's fglrx driver which causes this to
happen with certain apps (full screen GL I think)<br>
<br>
IIRC the workaround is to supply a fake resolution to Myth when
starting.<br>
e.g. for my 1280x768 display on an Radeon x1250 I did this:<br>
mythfrontend --geometry 1279x768+1+0<br>
<br>
More information about this bug at <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.phoronix.com">www.phoronix.com</a> (in their forums,
sorry don't remember which forum had the info)<br>

Cheers<br>
