Hello,
I am making some test with vdr-xine 0.8.2, libxine en xine-ui from Reinhard's site (kubuntu 7.10)
It is on a laptop without dvb device.
For the moment I just try to replay recordings from an other vdr box, and dvd with dvdswitch.
I use a Sony bravia 32" TV screen connected at the vga output of the laptop.
The resolution configured in xorg.conf is 1280x720.
I achieve to have the "no-signal" in full screen.
When I replay recordings, most of them are with wide black bands left & right and for some of them also small bands up&down.
Some recordings (most movies) have wide bands on the four sides.
The most dvd's also have wide bands L&R. One of them plays in full screen but the image is stretched.
I was playing around with some settings of the plugin, but don't see how to get a good result.
In the past I made some test, I believed, with vdr-xine (or maybe xineliboutput ?), and I can remember something in the settings that achieved auto-scaling. I had at that time almost everything in full screen, but sometimes also with wrong stretching.
I tried to start xine, just by typing xine in a terminal box and choosinf "vdr" and I also tried xine -V xv --post vdr_video --post vdr_audio --post upmix_mono "vdr:/tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes", but can't really see a difference.
As I understand, I have different sources, with different resolutions. Is there a manner to tell vdr-xine or xine to adapt the output as good as possible to my tv screen ?
Thanks,
sp
