Hello... I have a ECS G732 laptop with a radeon mobility 9000 adapter w/
svhs out.
I want to watch my movies (dvd and divx) on my TV, but I couldn't figure
out how to configure XF86Config-4. Well, actually I already did that,
but not the way I want it. I explain: to display the X desktop on TV, I
have to manually switch the XF86Config file (configured for TV) and
restart X. But when I'm gonna watch my movies, I cannot use the XV
extension. The video simply refuse to display on TV (that doesn't occur
on the LCD), the screen of the player becomes black (not the whole
desktop or the player itself, just where the video is supposed to show).
The only way I can watch the videos is using mplayer with the gl2
driver. Since I prefer using totem for dvd playing, I would like to know
what's the problem with that.
So, there are some tasks I would like to accomplish:
1- a XF86Config file working for LCD (1152x864) and TV (clone mode
800x600). Is that possible, or my LCD must also be 800x600?
2- I don't know if it's possible, but I would like to make that "Fn+F12"
key work for switching between LCD and TV (just like err... windows :P)
3- If none of the above, I would be glad just with that xv problem
solved :).
Best regards
