I must be missing something here.. with fxtv-0.46 I had two options for display -- a tiny window, or a medium size window (at least on my 1600x1200 display without any virtual stretched desktops) -- both sizes behaved perfectly normally. With 0.47, as soon as I go to the larger window (this isn't "full-screen", just a quarter of my screen size in a normal X window with all the titlebars etc), I lose the capability to use my mouse and do other stuff in other windows. This seems to be a retrograde step to me. >Here are a few URLs I saved; may still be valid, I don't know for sure >though. You might search the multimedia archive at >(www.freebsd.org/search.html) for pieces of these URLs (e.g. "dknet"), and >you should pull up most of the messages you're interested in: Many thanks.. it's a good starting point.. I've noticed one problem already though -- the radio thing works fine until I quit it and fire up fxtv. When I start the radio application again, the frequencies are all messed up -- ie putting in 107.1FM doesn't get me that particular radio station. Sounds like something somewhere isn't being fully reinitialised when going from TV to tuner mode. -aDe -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX.
