[olug] hd playback

[Noel Leistad]

Bought an HDHomerun.

MBE is P4/2.8Ghz w/ GeForce FX5200 - Mythdora 4.0 confg'd to 800x600 at 50hz

MFE is AOpen MiniPC, 1.7Ghz P4, on-board video - Mythdora 4.0 confg'd to 
800x600 at 60hz

HD recordings, some 1280x??, some 1920x1080, display fine on PC Screen 
attached to MBE. When running on MFE output to TV via svideo, Video 
displays as "blue-screen", audio sounds OK.

Thinking SDTV can't display HD, even thru mythtv (??), I bought HDTV.

on MFE, HD programming using svideo, still "blue-screen", switched to 
RGB(PC), same thing.

Don't know how much memory allocated to video on MFE, could this be 
problem?? Looking for ideas.

BTW, also, SD streams played on the new TV exhibit garbled audio, so, 
they unwatchable as well. Anyone else experienced similar? WAF currently 
more like WDisAF;common, but now at an elevated level. The only saving 
grace is the nice new TV that plays OTA pretty well.

OT - "Enjoy Lunch w/ the Penguin" today, for those getting to attend.
