Hi!

Here's my current setup:

VDR 1.6.0-2, FFmpeg r15245, DirectFB 1.0.1, Xinelib 1.1.15, and Xineliboutput 1.0.1. I have a Matrox G550, so I'm running VDR using

-P "xineliboutput --local=fbfe --video=DirectFB"

to output the picture thru' tv-out. Everything works nicely except the OSD in Xineliboutput's Media player.

When using hardware scaling for video (xineliboutput.Video.SwScale = 0), the OSD is correctly sized with any video, but looks a bit awful (hw scaling is not doing too good job). So I want to use software scaling instead. If I switch software scaling on during video playback, the OSD becomes nice looking, just like it is when watching/playing DVB stuff.

BUT, if I later try playing any video with media player (the same as before or another), the OSD is really tiny in the top-left corner. The size of the OSD now seems to depend on the video resolution. If I go to Xineliboutput's settings, disable & enable sw scaling, the OSD is again shown correctly. So this seems to be some kind of problem with initializing the OSD during startup of video playback.

Any hints?

Br,
