Do you then know of a procedure for running TV out on a Matrox card and
simultaneously supporting xVideo? The docs at
http://www.bglug.ca/matrox_tvout/g450_tvout_howto.html seem to say that you
cannot get xVideo to run with TV out on the G450 and G550 ... and these are
the only Matrox cards I am aware of that support TV out with X.
If you do know how to do this, could you post either the details or a
reference (URL) to the details?
