im in mythvideo and whenever i go to play a video it takes me to a screen with details about the video and when i hit enter nother happens

run mythfrontend from an xterm and then exit back out of mythtv after a video has failed and see what errors are in the xterm.

it says no such file? i dont know how that can be

Check your mplayer path in "Utilities / Setup\Setup\Media Setting\Video Settings\Player Settings" and make sure it's /usr/bin/mplayer and NOT /usr/local/bin/mplayer.

ok that fixed the problem but now ive got a new one
"it seems there is no Xvideo supper for your video card available"

i have a nvidea geforce 2 gts 32mb, hooked up to my monitor

so i ran xvinfo and it says no adapters present

sorry i accdentley double posted

actually you need to start a new thread for this. the first one never should have been posted in this section. tier 2 is for working hardware that you just had to edit a few things.

you wouldnt happen to know how to fix this problem

Even if we did we won't discuss it here. The only follow up on off topic posts is "You're off topic - this will most likely be deleted when Cecil sees it." Get the picture? In case it's not clear, the issue is - why should we waste time on s thread that won't be useful to anyone after that?
