xbvset parameters for a real HDTV not X2VGA on a 1.6 at 480p
Posted: Fri Jul 22, 2005 1:42 pm
GreetZ all,
Let me sum things up, here is my hardware/software:
><box version 1.6
200GB hard disk
SmartXX
Booting into GentooX using the loader.xbe
EvoX m8 bios
Monster Video HDTV cable
Sony 47inch HDTV capable of 480p (among other things)
GentooX Home Version 4.0
Installed to F drive (NOT native install)
Running XFCE
PROBLEM:
OK so I have installed my GentooX, and have set my video using xbvset to 480p. I still have a little bit of overscan. I have noticed that the xbvset script adds some lines to one of the start up scripts.
DONE SO FAR:
Already set the video output to 480p via xbvset. I have Googled AND searched this forum for my answers and have come up short. Most people here are trying to run there 1.6 through some sort of adapter like X2VGA, NOT me.
QUESTIONS:
1. Are there any additional command line parameters that I can tell xbvset?
2. What are these lines that are being added to which script by xbvset, and can I get some info to try to tweak these values a little bit?
3. Should I try running the video setup program in XFCE, already re-did xbvset from a terminal window?
Your cooperation is appreciated,
