I'm using Ubuntu, with wired ethernet. connection So both framebuffer and xorg with xineliboutput are working? Did you compile them yourself, or there are binaries qavailable for Fedora? What about CPU usage. Is the PS3 able to display everything smoothly (with and without the OSD)?
I am compiling everything myself because I need to apply some patch to enable new features. (kernel side, library side). But if you want to avoid hacking the system you need to find a ppc repository containing VDR packages, especially xinelibouput plugin.
Yes, the PS3 is able to display both video and OSD smoothly. As I said earlier the SD picture quality is really not optimum. May be someone can comment 720p or 1080p outputs?
The PS3 is connected to a SD TV set.
As you can see it is not something complicated. Apparently when trying the
same thing with HD (720p/1080p) television gives better result. (talking about picture quality) To enhance the picture quality on a SD TV you can deinterlace in sw before displaying the picture. The drawback is that an interlaced source is de-interlaced then interlaced again to coop with PAL standard.
My PS3 is connected to a 720p display, so this should not be a problem... if it's not a problem for CPU usage...
You are a lucky guy ;-) Is your TV able to upscale SD content or do you plan to do the up-scaling job in software?
I did put this project on hold until better fb or xv support is popping up ;-) May be you will also be interested to have a look here:
