[mythtv-users] VideoOutputXv Problems...

[Andy Speagle]

Hi all...

I've setup my Dell D600 notebook as a remote frontend... and I'm watching
live TV well enough... but it's jerky... here's the output I get...

Now.. .with that said... I'm running Gentoo 2006.1 on this box... which is
ATI Video based... I have the fglrx drivers installed and setup (
ati-drivers-8.27.10-r1) .. both my frontend and remote backend are running
MythTV .20 (v11444) ... here is the relevant device portion of my xorg.conf

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "aticonfig-Device[0]"
        Driver      "fglrx"
        Option      "UseInternalAGPGart" "no"
        Option      "OpenGLOverlay" "on"
EndSection

Also... glxinfo says "direct rendering: Yes" ...

So... I guess I need to be clued in on this one...

Thanks,

Andy
