Post subject: | Nvidia TV-out purple color to X11 [Solved] |
I've got an nVidia 6200 TC video card that has a TV-out (component and S-video) that I use to run a projector. Currently the output, once it loads the desktop has a Purple color to it(during boot it produces colors correctly). I've checked the cables and connected a DVD player to test. It is not a connection or a projector problem. It has not been plugged in for quite a while and I had it working under R6 using nvidia drivers around version 175.x the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file I was using under R6 does not seem to work under this setup. I am running the current stable LinHES 7.4 and version nvidia-295.20-2 From my research I think the nvidia card is sending RGB signals to the Y Cb Cr connectors. My xorg.conf file is below. I've also tried removing the xorg.conf that was suggested in the forums, that didn't work either. Code: # nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings

found the issue . . .Yeah! LinHES auto configures the video and I am still getting used to where Arch Linux puts the config files. So if you are using TV OUT from an nVidia card(not a standard option) you need to edit a different file, not /etc/X11/xorg.conf The new file to edit is in the follow directory: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-automv.conf Make a copy because this may be overwritten by the LinHES auto config if using the Myth GUI or upgrading . . . I don't know this for certain, but it is good to have a backup. adding the TVOUTFormat to this file means the config gets read when the front end starts. Here is mine. . . The important parts are under the Screen heading Code: # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
