Adding some more information which I should have put in originally: The video card is an onboard Nvidia card: Nvidia GeForce 6150 LE connected to an HP w19 wide-screen lcd monitor. And I over pasted on the error message, it should just be: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Running tvtime 1.0.1. Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml Reading configuration from /home/vashanti/.tvtime/tvtime.xml xvoutput: No XVIDEO port found which supports YUY2 images. *** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card *** driver. If you are using an older NVIDIA card (TNT2), then *** this capability is only available with their binary drivers. *** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental *** GATOS drivers: http://gatos.souceforge.net/ *** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your *** X driver supports hardware overlay surfaces. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Fedora Core 6 and proud
