[mythtv-users] Maxtrox G400 TV-out help

[John Danner]

The TV-out on their X11 driver works, though it doesn't have Xv support on 
the second head (Which also happens to be the only output port that allows 
for TV-out). You will need to go with the framebuffer solution to get the Xv 
support. There was a good howto posted to the -dev list several months back. 

Good Luck!
