I was just wondering how far people got with the TV Out on their Matrox =
G400 Dualheads since this was last discussed. I got the tv out to work =
for the most part, I can see the X desktop (and likewise the myth menus =
and such), but unfortunately i dont get any actual video from live tv or =
watching a recording. now i know i dont get videooverlay on the tv and =
i understand why, but i dont get why i wouldn't be able to watch live tv =
through myth since all im really watching is the decompressed video =
stream, right? the little preview box in the "watch a recording" menu =
does work though. I was told i need XV to get this to work.. which i am =
under the impression the matrox drivers support (im using the matrox =
drivers straight off the matrox site and their powerdesk software, btw), =
so i was wondering if anyone actually got the full screen video to work =
from myth on the tvout? anyways, if so, lemme know how you got it =
working, thanks a lot.
