Hi Michael,

- the drivers are loaded
- i installed FFMPEG manually, but i thought that the c't vdr managed the installation of all needed hollywood+ stuff correctly. Anyway, the installation of ffmpeg didn't change anything

When i try "mplayer -ao oss:/dev/em8300_ma-0 -vo dxr3 dvd://1" i can see the DVD via the h+ card. So now i know that is not broken. But i cant't imagine, what's wrong when i try to disply the vdr ...

Christian

second a dum question: where can I change the primary device? I found
various discussions about the primary device but i didn't find anything
about where to set this. In which configure file  is this done???
      
hi,

to be certain that the h+ is working you could have a look at the init
parameters of the dxr3 drivers, there is a picture generator function
intergrated (can´t remember witch module, its to long ago)

Christian,

A Hollywood+ card needs some specific drivers to be loaded prior to use it !
If your TV is flickering when loading the drivers, it seems that you have some
drivers... Meanwhile, the TV screen should normally (often) became grren for a
while, before displaying the channel you're watching !

So that, could you please look at the following:

1. If you display loaded modules (bash command is lsmod), do you see the em8300
drivers ?
2. Do you have FFMPEG installed correctly ? EM8300 drivers needs that !

EM8300 is the driver used to manage the Hollywood+ card.

More informations about installing/using the DXR3 plugin is located at

PS: Before changing the setup.conf file for changing the primary device, make
sure that vdr is not working !
