--YiEDa0DAkWCtVeE4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Adrian Wontroba: |> Hmmm. Could you mail your complete StationList (antenna or cable; |> whichever is appropriate)? I'm just wondering about the syntax. | |Fxtv.antennaStationList: BBC1(46) BBC2(40) ITV(43) CH4(50) CH5(f598.00) Just tried the same, and I don't get the behavior you describe. So I can only guess that this has to do with differences between the cards/driver code we're making use of. |Mouse click in picture. | |Get display as described (mode change, fxtv display displaced to right |and down) and this outut: | |x,y,w,h,W,H = 516,472,768,576,1280,1024 |TVSCREENCapConfigure() failed: Direct video region outside bounds of display 516+768=1284 > 1280 472+576=1048 > 1024 Perusing the code, it appears that the window manager may be overriding fxtv's repositioning of the video window. When zooming the video window to max size would put part of it off the display, it requests a repositioning of the fxtv shell to get the video window completely on the desktop. However, the window is not OVERRIDE_REDIRECT, so the window manager can play games and modify or deny the request. |> Does this happen whereever you place the window on your desktop? If not, |> what is different if anything about the various areas? Does this happen |> all the time or just some of the time. | |I've just experimented a bit. With my normal set-up the fxtv window |usually appears close to the bottom right, and if it doesn't I put it |there. | |If the original window is located at a screen corner, the TV image is |displaced in the same direction. The displacement seems greater the |further the original is away from the top left corner of the screen, and |also seems repeatable. Sounds like more DGA with Matrox 8Meg cards. |If the original window is placed away from the edges of the screen, |behavior is not so predictable, but appears repeatable. | |If the original window is placed in just the right position, I get a |viewable picture. xwininfo has this to say about the original window: In looking into this, I found a problem with setting the viewport when doing full-screen zoom. You can apply the attached patch. However, unlesss I'm misunderstanding your description, it won't solve all your problems. Sounds like one is related to the window manager modifying Fxtv's request to reposition the window, and a second is related to Matrox DGA problems. The better fix is to use a different window for full-screen zoom and make it OVERRIDE_REDIRECT. That would also allow for a centered image with black borders which some folks have requested.
