Hi all,
I am not able to play video in full screen mode....i googled a lot and found that if i add zoom=yes option in the config file then i twill work.Indeed it is working but the frame rate is slow and the whole comp becomes slow i did not have this problem with fc3 frm which i migrated to gentoo in the hope of better performance Sad
xvinfo gives this
Code: | bash-2.05b$ xvinfo
X-Video Extension version 2.2
screen #0
no adaptors present
|
I have an intel board and on reading frm the intel site i got to find that i have and intel advanced graphics card.........if it helps and in the driver section of xorg.conf(which i came to know after some googling that it is equivalent to XF86Config) i have
Quote: |
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Intel 865"
EndSection |
and this is what intel has to say in the video section of my board
Quote: | Intel® Extreme Graphics 2 controller
Universal 0.8/1.5 V AGP 3.0 connector supporting 1x, 4x, and 8x AGP cards or an AGP Digital Display (ADD) card
Integrated retention mechanism |
Quote: | now i have discovered that i do not have an item named /dev/agpgart that i used to have on fc3 so now is this the cause of the porblem and how to fix this... |
please be a bit descriptive as to which file i have to edit and what do i have to put in to it to change that adapters thing..
i would like to say that
my X server is running perfectly fine...................
Advance thanks for any help. I have been as descriptive as i can but still if any more details frm my side can help me solve the prob then plz do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you

Make sure you are using the right video outout mode with mplayer. I think I get the problem when using xshm. Check that you are using xv or some opengl driver. Most likely you'll have top recompile your kernel . If you need more help just ask. |

Thank you very much for your replies.....the problem is now solved!!...
Mistake: I forgot to autoload the intel_agp and agpgart modules.When i did not do that in xvinfo i did not get the adapters so now i am getting them and i now see the devce /dev/agpgart which i did not see earlier.I think this wud be a way to identify and map to my problem isomorphically.
And also we have to use the xv output plugin to play the videos.
Solution: Just load them!!
cheers
