[mythtv-users] MythTV Frontend doesn't show on the TV

[Martin H Hartman III]

Nick,

I found the problem and have fixed it, it was the frame buffer setting in my 
xorg.conf.  I do have another question if anybody knows how?  I would like 
to run Dual Heads without any aspect ratio or desktop showing issues on the 
TV.  I have looked at most of the threads on the issue but most of them are 
quite dated.  Anybody running dual heads in FC4 with a PVR-350 using the 
output on said card I would greatly appreciate your help.  BTW my regular 
video card is an ATI 9600 XT.

Let me guess - the desktop also shows on your monitor? If this is the
case, you need to make sure you are using the PVR-350 X driver to
ensure everything appears on the TV. The way you are running now makes
me think you are running everything on the monitor, but, having
selected 'Use PVR-350' in frontend setup, LiveTV and recordings are
being correctly routed through the PVR-350 to your TV.
