I am trying to get tv playback working on my HDTV, when I have my card at 800x600 or 1024x768 it will display video to the screen at a reasonable rate, and play audio correctly.
When I change resolution in my XF86Config-4 file to 1920x1080 and restart x, the frontend comes up fine and responds quickly, but as soon as I try to play LIve TV or Recorded TV the XFree86 process hits 99% cpu usage, and all I get is a black screen with the occasional burst of audio, for like a second then silence again for 5-10 secs, then another burst ...
This is a new install (auto-install) of Knoppmyth, my system includes:
Athalon XP 2400+
512M DDR 333
Gforce 6600 GT AGP
Hauppage PVR 250
Can anyone suggest anything I might be able to change to get this working right? Any pointers would be greatly apreciated. I have tried switching between the i586 and i686 optimized codes, and could see no difference. I have also tried downgrading to the 6629 NVIDIA driver, but they didnt seem to like my component out (just got blank screens). Also tried installing the XvMC support, but it wouldnt install from the scripts provided, did not look into that further as it is not really reccomended due to incompatibility issues, at least from what Ive read in the forums.
Thanks,
Sparhawk
PS. My XF86Config-4 file is as follows:
