Hi,
I am using softdevice (0.2.3, I was using 0.2.2 before) in a system with an ATI Radeon 9500 AGP, Xorg 6.8.2 , ATI's fglrx driver ver 8.24.8 . Xorg is loading the ATI xv-overlay. Overlay mode is set to "psuedo" (hardware?). I've tried VDR versions 1.3.44 to 1.3.48 with same behavior.
Oddly, the OSD overlay seems to be "vertically interlaced" -- instead of being a smooth blackish-color on-top of the live video I see vertical banding, as if every other vertical line is not drawn. Depending on the background video, the text is sometimes hard to read.
If I set the overlay mode to "software" then the OSD is really messed same. "Software" also did not work with an nVidia TNT2 using Xorg 6.8.2's nVidia driver. I know what the OSD "should" look like, when I was using vdr-xine, the OSD was a uniform blackish color cleanly overlayed on top of video.
Are there any suggestions?
Thank you.
CR.
