S-Video + Focus?

[sovereign]

Is it just me or does S-Video not work with Focus, and if that is the case, is there anything planned to fix the problem in the near future? I can use it with the regular coaxial but S-Video seems so nice with the small text and stuff.

it's not just you

Theres a reason it doesnt work... its not been coded in to the driver yet Until either me or dmp get an s-video pack, its not a high priority.

Import new focus driver work.
This separates the focus and conexant drivers better, and also initialises
the GCC and encoder from scratch now.

Advantage is that we can work even if the BIOS / bootloader sets things up
wrongly. Disadvantage means we need to take care to set up parameters for
different cable types ourselves.

Normal composite, and RGB(SCART) (both PAL) tested and working on Focus.
=============================================================================

Is there someone who can make the patch work on gentoox. I have tried to patch the source code with the whole "drivers" directory structure and recompile the kernel. But the TV-quality does not seem to be affected much ?

Please help
