Hi All, I am running VDR on a debian system using backports.org for newer kernels. I have a Matrox G550 graphics card with one analog DSUB 15 output and one digital DVI output.
I have VDR working nicely connected by the DVI output via a DVI-HDMI cable to my toshiba 62cm9ua rear projection TV. I am using directfb and softdevice.
What I want however is the console to be on the analog output only and VDR to be on the DVI exclusively. At th moment if VDR exits then I get the console output on the analog output.
Hope someone can help.
Also if anyone has a directfb fb.modes entry for 1080i@60Hz I'd love a look at that as well :-)
Thanks a lot.
Regards Anthony.

I'd like to know that too and asked this question when I installed a similar system. Back then the answer was, it doesn't work. Did you find anything else in the meantime?

No way because the G550 can't do more than 1280x1024 at the DVI port. Analog yes. BTW for 1080p/i you'll need a _real_ fast CPU because the GPU doesn't do a lot of decoding work...
