Do you need to run gnome at all? Its quite processor intensive if all you are doing is using it to watch TV. See the other recent thread on starting VDR/xine at boot time using startx / replacing the session manager and those problems with gnome screensaver won't be apparent.
Also, there is a later version (patch) of CoreAVC for xine that I released on the list which will apply to the hg version of xine (with a bit of tweaking with more recent versions). The updated version will support channels at resolutions different to 1920x1080i (there are quite a few of them).
HTH
No, I don't "need" Gnome and am looking into alternatives per your suggestion. I hate the idea of having to run a display manager at all, but the picture looks too good to back out now. ;)
On the other note, I've been trying with a current HG of xine-lib: changeset: 10295:c22d7a4b5854 tag: tip parent: 10282:6948d6d0a31e parent: 10294:dcabf02a88e6 user: Darren Salt linux@youmustbejoking.demon.co.uk date: Tue Apr 15 01:06:51 2008 +0100 summary: Merge from 1.1.
and applied the patch "xine-lib-1.2hg-coreavc.diff" with fuzz, then ./autogen.sh --disable-dxr3; make only to end up with :

So I've been trying to work my way around that to no avail. Your thoughts there would be MORE than welcome!

You don't need a display manager - you can run VDR with a suitable plugin at fullscreen right on top of X11.

Hmmm there isn't an actual compilation error in your paste, you might have to provide some more lines from above it.
