Hi,

I'm in the way of set different vdr clients based on softdevice and streamdev-client. Depending on each I have to decide witch softdevice output use. For example, one client is a debian gnome desktop machine with a pci express radeon X700.

The output of :

xdpyinfo |grep Video

Returns only XVideo. What is the best way to set that I want? I have tried to set the xv option but when I start VDR with:

-P"softdevice -vo xv:"

It says me that softdevice is not compiled with xv support. I have been checked the softdevice Makefile and XV_SUPPORT is set to 1 But I have noticed that when I execute in the softdevice dir the ./configure command with an option related to xv then the config.h and config.mak don't change. For example if I execute ./config --disable-fb I see config.h and config.mak updated. But if I execute ./configure --disable-xv don't update anything. If after that I execute again only ./configure anything changed again and it must update to enable all the outputs again.

The other type of client I want set is a non x-window system based. I have tried it with directfb without luck. The hardware is geoforce mx 4400 or 5500.

I know there is a lot of docs and I have readed a lot of them but I'm confused about how to set the best output. I know that the fb output is bad because cpu have a lot of work. At the moment the fb output is the only way softdevice worked to me. I understand that xvmc or directfb is the best way but I don't know exactly how to set up these.

Thanks.
