[MPlayer-users] general problems with nvidia vidix

[Thomas Lindroth]

I use the latest version of nvidia_vid from cvs.

The first error i encounted was:
vo: X11 running at 1400x1050 with depth 24 and 32 bpp (":0.0" => local display)
[mga] No supported cards found
[mga] No supported cards found
[nvidia_vid] Found chip: NV15 [GeForce2 GTS]
[nvidia_vid] Device is disabled, ignoring

I don't use Xinerama, but I have two screens. I don't know if it's suppose
to work with two screens. It worked when I disabled
the non nvidia screen. This is some parts of my XF86Config:

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "Default Layout"

        EndSubSection
EndSection

        Identifier "Screen1"
        Device     "Videocard1"
        Monitor    "Monitor1"
        DefaultDepth     16

        EndSubSection
EndSection

The vidix driver also mess with my pixmapp but I expected that. Documents
on the homepage say I should decrease the video ram in XF86Config with 4
mb. Why 4 mb? I use 1400x1050 at 32bit and I think that use 5.6 mb
videoram.

When I use -double, it mess up the videoram totaly. I can't even play
videos with xv after that. It goes away when i reboot the computer.

Most DIV3 files work fine but I found one that doesn't. -identify gives
me:
ID_VIDEO_FORMAT=DIV3
ID_VIDEO_BITRATE=407168
ID_VIDEO_WIDTH=368
ID_VIDEO_HEIGHT=272
ID_VIDEO_FPS=25,000
ID_VIDEO_ASPECT=0,0000
ID_AUDIO_CODEC=mp3
ID_AUDIO_FORMAT=85
ID_AUDIO_BITRATE=96000
ID_AUDIO_RATE=44100
ID_AUDIO_NCH=2
ID_LENGTH=2676

A normal video looks like this:

123456
123456
123456
123456

This one plays like this:

123456
612345
561234
456123

I hope you understand.
