Hi, I've got this problem with xineliboutput using xxmc as its video driver
it seems my old graphix card nvidia 440 MX, doesn't support more than 16 colours, when it should do OSD and xxmc :( is there a skin or theme that I can use taht would work good in a 16 colour environment? currently I'm using skinsoppalusikka. The only colour I can see is the blue bar at the top, the rest are black.
Any help would be appreciated. vdr-sxfe reports this on the console when I press menu button:
video_out: Warning! Out of xx44 palette colours!

You should disable antialising as it makes soppalusikka to default 8bpp.

Thanks, I will test this setting as soon as I get home. Setting the video driver to xxmc, removes the jerkyness that I used to get from selecting xv.

in /etc/vdr/setup.conf I set AntiAlias = 0
Seemed to have solved it!
