| Post subject: | ATI Video out Scrambled |
MythTV is installed fine... I have and ATI 9800 pro for video out. VGA output works fine but s-video and composite are scrambled (just lines and color) after X loads. I think it might be a setting in Xorg.conf so I put in the refresh rates. Code: Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0" Option "DPMS" "true" HorizSync 15 VertRefresh 50-60 EndSection On reboot it goes nuts saying "INIT: ID "c7" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes" So I don't know if 1. Some setting in xorg is messed up 2. Drivers are messed up 3. ATI card is a POS and won't do it. Also what if I buy a vga to s-video or composite would that work?? |

VertRefresh 60 - 60 15 is much too low and I'd guess that the server maybe overriding it or the like. Check the X logs as described on the CheckingLogFiles page on the wiki. |

I replaced the video card with a low cost GEForce and solved all my problems. http://www.mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=15836 |
