Recently I got a new motherboard and had to get a PCIe card. I chose a Gigabyte 7200 GS.
Now I can't get tv-out with COMPOSITE TVOutFormat to work with this card. Driver version is 100.14.19 My TV is connected via svideo->svideo-scart adapter->scart. Now with the new card SCART and SVIDEO format does work, but only in black & white. COMPOSITE causes a black screen Config as follows: Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Nvidia7200GS"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS"
Screen 0
Option "NoLogo" "true"
Option "Rotate" "off"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"
Option "TripleBuffer" "true"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPOSITE"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Nvidia7200GS"
Monitor "fujitsu"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "TwinView" "1"
Option "metamodes" "CRT: 1024x768 +0+0, TV: 1024x768 +0+0"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
I also tried PAL-G but that didn't help. Config issue? Or is this a driver bug affecting this card? |

Bummer, seems this bug affects more cards with such a breakout box for tv-out.
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/list...v/users/287429 EDIT: meanwhile I think that the card just does what it should :P Composite output just over the AV chinch connector. That would make perfectly sense. |

Okay, now I got a composite AV cable, and tadaa color is back.
But now there is a new issue. My monitor has 4:3 and so has the TV, but the picture on the TV has black borders on top and bottom, like displaying 16:9 on a 4:3 screen. So the aspect ratio is wrong actually. How to fix this? |
