I gave up, pls help
I can't play video (DIVX, XVID) under linux using the xv video output, not in xine and not in mplayer. I tried 2 distributions, GENTOO and Mandrake 9.1 and still the same problem.
I have EPOX 8K9a+, Sapphire radeon 9100, and XFree 4.3.
when I run mplayer (mplayer -vo xv) or Xine (xine -V xv) I just hear sound and I see dark blue color instead of the video.
XFree is loading the "XV" according to the log files, I read the mplayer documentation and xvinfo seems to be OK.
so I guess the problem is in hardware, either in the main board bios or the graphic card.
I would like to know if anybody has similar problems, or what options in bios may affect this.
the hardware acceleration seems to be OK, glxgears gives me around 2200 fps.
I don't know what else to try ....
thanks in advance
