Post subject: | Problem transitioning from tube TV to flat panel LCD (R5F27) |
Just got a new Sharp Aquos LCD TV and am in the process of transitioning from my old tube TV (via s-video) to the new digital panel (via VGA). I was able to find a modeline that enabled the panel's native 1360x768 resolution over VGA with 1:1 pixel mapping. The MythTV Gui looks fantastic at the higher resolution. The problem is, whenever I try to watch LiveTV or previously recorded programs, I get a black screen and the system locks up. I have to SSH in and reboot to get X back up and running. The weird thing is, if I replace my xorg.conf with the xorg.conf.nvidia.tvout.example and plug the Myth box back into the S-Video port of the new tv, it works flawlessly (although noticeably fuzzier). I examined the mythfrontend.log, and found that something is going wrong: Code: 2007-12-04 17:22:57.592 Current Schema Version: 1160 2007-12-04 17:22:57.593 mythfrontend version: 0.20.20070821-1 www.mythtv.org 2007-12-04 17:22:57.593 Enabled verbose msgs: important general 2007-12-04 17:22:58.545 Total desktop dim: 1360x768, with 1 screen[s]. 2007-12-04 17:22:58.546 Using screen 0, 1360x768 at 0,0 2007-12-04 17:22:58.546 Switching to wide mode (neon-wide) Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

I've searched for some of the errors in the log, and can't find anything that's helpful. I've tried reinstalling the nvidia drivers, I did an auto-upgrade from R5F27 to R5F27 to refresh the install, I commented out the load "glx" line in my xorg.conf, and I tried switching between the internal, libmpg2, and xvmc MPEG2 decoders in Myth. I tried adding the following to the end of the xorg.conf file after reading it had fixed the GLX issue in other instances. Code: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection None of this has solved the problem. Currently, I have myth configured to use the full screen to play live and recorded TV. Below is a copy of the xorg.conf file that works for 1360x768 but locks up with the above errors when playing live or recorded content. Code: Section "ServerLayout"

I ended up doing a clean install, and the problem went away. Still not sure what caused it. |

Teh only time I got a lock-up like the one you describe is when I had "realtime prioity" set ON. No matter what I tried, that darned realtime priority would cause a full lockup for everything I tried to watch. |

Does it have digital input? HDMI will look better than VGA. Mike |

It does have dual HDMI inputs, but for some reason 1:1 pixel mapping is only enabled on VGA, so my DVI-HDMI connection resulted in overscan problems that I wasn't able to fix. |

mapping is only enabled on VGA, so my DVI-HDMI connection resulted in overscan problems that I wasn't able to fix. That's good to know. I'll cross Sharp off my shopping list. I had downloaded the manuals and couldn't tell for sure if the 1:1 pixel mode would work for an HDMI input or not. |

I will say, it is still a great TV - the difference between HDMI and VGA is not discernible to me... and, the 6ms refresh on this set is - the fast action scenes are much more noticeable on my friend's 8ms Samsung set... don't really notice it on this Sharp. |
