Hi!<br>
<br>
Just contributing...<br>
<br>
It's done, after more googling and readings over mythtv.org>wiki I
found the articles:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6083159">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6083159</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI_Proprietary_Driver#Garbled_Screens_with_OpenGL_Painter">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATI_Proprietary_Driver#Garbled_Screens_with_OpenGL_Painter</a><br>
<br>
But more precisely I did the following:<br>
<br>
on /etc/mythtv/session-settings I did put:<br>
MYTHFRONTEND_OPTS="--geometry 1920x1081"<br>
<br>
and removed from the mythvideo command for mplayer to play files the
default argument "-vo xv".<br>
<br>
Also have to choose a television playback profile that have Standard
(ffmpeg) & xlib.<br>
<br>
So, I'm a happy user with mythbuntu 8.10 in a ASUS P5Q Pro + Asus
EAH3600 + MyCinema P7131.<br>
<br>
Currently only do not have sound at coaxial, but is a issue related to
the age of the board and distribution.<br>
Driver for graphics is the nearest to manufacturer, the other drivers
doesn't give me a to much fluid TV image.<br>
<br>
With the 8.04 untus I did compile mboard's possible driver packs and
installed graphics with no problem, but since 8.10 buntus give more or
less support for this hardware on inst... 8.10 it stands.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

I'm using mythbuntu 8.10. <br>
<br>
After do apt-get for the drivers for my ATI 3600 (needed to be able to
see fluid TV without stops) I get the following situation:<br>
When I start mythtv-setup from mythbuntu control center I get the
mythtv wih correct screen like in img2.jpg.<br>
When mythtv-setup or mythfrontend starts from command line or session
startup the screen is jammed like in the img1.jpg<br>
<br>
This doesn't happen if I use one 19" LCD.<br>
<br>
If I look into the logs for mythfrontend I see:<br>
2008-11-13 09:03:57.914 Overriding GUI, width=1920, height=1080 at 0,0<br>
...<br>
2008-11-13 09:03:58.018 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE
value = 'TVVidModeForceAspect0' AND hostname = 'mcchico' ;<br>
2008-11-13 09:03:58.019 max_width: 1920 max_height: 1200<br>
2008-11-13 09:03:58.020 MSqlQuery: SELECT data FROM settings WHERE
value = 'ISO639Language0' AND hostname = 'mcchico' ;<br>
<br>
when my LCD TV is a Samsung LE32A557 that gives only 1920x1080.<br>
So if launch frontend with geometry=1920x1200 the screen is fine, not
correct since there the vertical 120pixels are out of screen.<br>
<br>
How can I have the same beavour of the launch from the
mythbuntu-control-center? Or how can I correct the detection that says "</font><font
face="Arial">max_width: 1920 max_height: 1200"?</font><br>
I tried without success changing settings table values related to
screen resolution.<br>
Thanks!<br>
