Hi,
I have a friend who is trying to build a MythTV box.
He has been given a gimped PC and they have removed the AGP slot, so it's PCI cards only.
He needs PAL TV out and budget it extremely limited.
We've seen some Radeon 9200s with S-Video coming out of HK and we need to know whether the driver (open source radeon) supports TV-Out.
According to this page, in August 2007, it is supported but NTSC only and requires some command line & xorg.conf hacking.
3 questions:
1) Can somebody please confirm this is true?
2) Does anybody know if support for PAL has materialised?
3) Does anybody know if there is an easier way to set this up (does the multi monitor GUI section of GNOME work with this yet?)
Thanks,
J1M.
