[MPlayer-users] XvMC problem

[Ivan Kalvachev]

So. Now I need the output of `xvinfo`
Thanks to the help of Alex (beastd) the error was tracked
to XvGetPortAttribute in vo_xvmc.c::230

This code queries the color key. Color key is very importan because
XvMC don't support AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY (and probably never will), so
it should be drawn using Xfill function. If colorkey is not drawn
you cannot see the video from the overlay :(

I had to install the new (61.11) drivers and see if they support
XV_COLORKEY. It looks like they do.

But looking at your output, it looks like there is something strange.
You doesn't run video of adapter 0, that is overlay. It runs on
adapter 1. And this is the first time I see XvMC on no-overlay adapter.

Just to be sure I ignored adapter #0, and run XvMC acceleration.
No XvMC on any of my other adapters available...

So what are you doing?

Wish You Best

p.s.
I will redo the colorkey routines.
beastd also considers rewrite (for xv), so it may combine it.
It is nice to remember that not ALL XVideo ports
need drawing of color key !
