I did a fresh re-install and all is working well over here. Now my real hacking
begins that is to modify the DVD mpeg player to use the brand new spanking
functions in XFree86 to do yuv->rgb + scaling with hardware assist 8)
-----------------------------------------------------------
If any of you are running XFree86 3.9.17 I have a modified mpeg player
which should work with a matrox mga 200 or matrox mga 400 vga with
hardware assist yuv->rgb + scaling :
ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/mpeg_play.tar.gz
Thats a quick hacked up mpeg_play to use XvPutImage which does
the yuv-rgb + scaling magic.
So we can now watch video at 1600x1200 at any color depth well at least at
8, 15,16, 24, 32 8)
If mpeg_play with XFree86 3.9.17 and an mga 200 or mga 400 doesn't work for you
just let me know cause I am running XFree86 -current .
Have Fun Guys
