Hi,
I'm using VDR 1.4.0-2, softdevice cvs 2006-5-30, nVidia 6200TC video card, nVidia binary driver 8762, Xorg 6.8.1, TV-out (NTSC) @ 800x600x24bpp, GCC 4.1.1 .
For OSD, if I use "psuedo", in full-screen mode, the entire OSD "blinks" when there is video and the OSD is not usable. If I use "software" for OSD setting, then OSD looks OK but when overlayed over video, OSD colors are all wrong.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
I've seen similar behavior on a TNT2 using the opensource "nv" driver, and other bizarre problems using ATI cards (both opensource and ATI proprietary drive), so I think something in softdevice OSD code is incorrect.
Using mplayer,xine/xine-ui, videos/DVDs play fine and overlay always works correctly.
Thanks, CR.

Wrong OSD color only ? Or both video and OSD ?
Use softdevice setup OSD and try to change the HUE value to max (100). If you can read german, have a look at this: http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=49914&hilight=nvidia+...
Radeons (rv280:9200 and rv350:9550) work fine even with pseudo mode using Xorg 7.0 here. The limitation in pseudo mode is, that it is not a real alphablend mode.

Finally someone besides my detects that the default color-settings softdevice uses are not correct.
Can't softdevice just be patched to internally use unchanged values, e.g. use the values from xv as initialization and just change them when user does.
For the cvs-version I use there is no control contained in the menu to choose between Pseudo OSD and software-blended. But setting in setup.conf works nevertheless.
