Softdevice and ATI Radeon overlay issue

Hi,

I am using softdevice (0.2.3, I was using 0.2.2 before) in a system with
an ATI Radeon 9500 AGP, Xorg 6.8.2 , ATI's fglrx driver ver 8.24.8 .
Xorg is loading the ATI xv-overlay.  Overlay mode is set to "psuedo"
(hardware?).  I've tried VDR versions 1.3.44 to 1.3.48 with same behavior.

Oddly, the OSD overlay seems to be "vertically interlaced" -- instead of
being a smooth blackish-color on-top of the live video I see vertical
banding, as if every other vertical line is not drawn.  Depending on the
background video, the text is sometimes hard to read.

If I set the overlay mode to "software" then the OSD is really messed
same.  "Software" also did not work with an nVidia TNT2 using Xorg 6.8.2's
nVidia driver.  I know what the OSD "should" look like, when I was using
vdr-xine, the OSD was a uniform blackish color cleanly overlayed on top of
video.

Are there any suggestions?

Thank you.

CR.

Klaus and all other Developers.

I personally just wanted to say thanks like everyone else to Klaus for 
having a vision and giving so much to us.  Thanks for all your hard work 
and dedication.  On top of that, it isn't just Klaus that is involved.  
Thanks to all the Developers out there that have truly made VDR what it 
is today.  By far it is the top notch.  So just my 2 cents in saying 
thank you, and we all I am sure hope you continue to make things even 
better for us!

References to DVBDIR should also be removed from the plugin Makefiles.

please can you check if the file 
"/video/Clips/Tito_&_Tarantula_-_After_Dark/2005-02-04.22.50.99.99.rec/protection.fsk"
was created by the script.
Does you have changed the script "/usr/bin/fskprotect.sh" to the new one?

Re: [Softdevice-devel] [ANNOUNCE] vdr-softdevice-0.2.3

Hello,

just replaced released tar file with vdr-softdevice-0.2.3a, as there
were two major bugs with configuring an compiling DirectFB output.
Sorry for inconvenience.

For getting fixes within this release, you could just type
'cvs update' within softdevice directory. By this update, you'll
stay in the cvs branch created for this release (branch: v023_fix).

That's just the standard way the sourceforge.net software handles file
downloads. Yes, it sucks, this way you can't simply use wget.
(And they should at least use HTTP status 300, which was designed for
exactly that purpose.)

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-ipod-0.0.3

Hi,

a new version (0.0.3) of the ipod plugin is available at www.jwendel.de

General:
The ipod plugin shows titel / gernre / artists / etc. of the ITunesDB  on a 
mounted ipod. The osd structure is most familiar of the ipod's menu.
For play back the mp3 plugin is used, therefor you need this plugin too.

Changes:
  - only the Makefile was changed due to the APIVERSION feature

Greetings 
Jörg Wendel

I speak from the future :-)

I meant to say :
"- Minor release change because it's ready for vdr-1.4 (test with 
vdr-1.3.49)"
