I'm experiencing blue lines on the top and left portion of my tv when I playback video. I've done some searching and have found what I think will be the solution; however, I am soo new to Linux that the instructions seem too complicated.

Here's what I've found: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... light=blue

I'll copy what XSecrets posted:



My problem is that I don't know how/where to create a file. Furthermore, I don't know how to place it in another place.

If someone could please get me started on the right foot, i think i'll be able to get it.

Thank you

I went through this yesterday, and I just put the command directly in in ~mythtv/.fluxbox/apps
So it looks like this:
Worked a treat! Thanks XSecrets.

Probably the easiest text editor to use would be nano.

Exit MythTV so that you see the penguin on the couch.
Hit Alt-X to get a terminal window.
Click into that window and enter "nano NameOfTheFileToEditHere"
Make and save the changes described.
Reboot.

Thank you very very much! That helped me understand a lot more. Now I still have the issue because I always seem to get an error message after I enter something in the console.
