How's it going? :) Hi! |I need it abit of help with FXTV. I have a booktree based video capture |card (not a tv card). The product actually is a Diamond Video Cam and |capture card kit. | |I just compilied a kernel with the booktree drivers and all. I installed |FXTV .47 from the ports collection, but when I ran it I got ghost images |(from the video cam) all over the bottom of the screen. The actual |picture wasn't inside the FXTV window. Although, when I moved the ghost |images (of myself captured from my camera device) moved as well. So I |guess it's a sign that it sort of works. Ok. Sounds like DGA problems. |Let me give you more info: | |I'm running 2.2.8 FreeBSD | New kernel build based on newer booktree drivers | Diamond Stealth 3D 3000 video card | Diamond Video Capture kit (with cam) | XFree86 3.3.3 | FXTV .47 | |Need any more info? I'm going to bet you are running 24- or 32-bpp. If so, try running fxtv like this: fxtv -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp24bit: 3" -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp32bit: 3" See if that doesn't get the video in the window. (My card has the same chipset: S3 Virge/VX). The issue is that (last time I checked) there is no way to query the true pixel geometry of the frame buffer via the X server. Thus we have to resort to guessing and user overrides to specify this stuff. If it is guessed/specified wrong, the video block doesn't track with the GUI video window. |Also, I tried compiling from source the FXTV .48 version, but I got some |error message. Here's the message: | |f34 -I. -DVERS_STR=\"0.48\" -DHAVE_XFREE86 -c remote.c |remote.c: In function `TVREMOTEOpen': |remote.c:610: `rem_dev' undeclared (first use this function) |remote.c:610: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once |remote.c:610: for each function it appears in.) |gmake: *** [remote.o] Error 1 |gummibear:~/fxtv-0.48$ No remote support in 2.2.8 I see. Little bug when it isn't there. Try the attached patch.
