Description Carl Michal 2009-10-26 20:59:06 UTC
With a virtual screen size > 2048 (thanks!), xv doesn't work.

eg mplayer -vo xv moviefile
just opens a mostly black window - the video never appears.
Comment 1 Carl Michal 2009-10-26 21:03:36 UTC
sorry - hit submit a little prematurely.

I've seen this on both a dell 630m with 915gm and on a mini-9 with 945gm.

with: xrandr --fb 2048x1024
xv seems to work fine, but after: xrandr --fb 2050x1024 it doesn't.

xvinfo claims:

maximum XvImage size: 2048 x 2048.

On the 915 machine I have:
kernel: 2.6.31
xf86-video-intel-2.9.0
mesa-7.5.2
libdrm-2.4.15

Hi Carl,

I'm re-assigning this bug to haihao.xiang@intel.com who should be able to tell
you whether this is an expected limitation or a bug that could be fixed.

Carl, does http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25204#c7 match your case?
Comment 4 Carl Michal 2009-11-24 19:46:36 UTC
It doesn't sound quite the same. 

I've never seen anything logged in dmesg.  

Doesn't seem to matter for me if a second output is connected or not - all my problem seems to depend on is the virtual screen size.

I didn't mean that original bug report, but its comment#7 reported by Shuang:
We just found that the video is offset up to the top of the desktop. only
bottom line of video can be still seen from the desktop
Comment 6 Carl Michal 2009-11-25 20:55:24 UTC
No, I don't see any of the video anywhere on the screen.

I have my problem on both a 945GME and a 915GM.

xrandr --fb 2050x1024 doesn't work, so it should be a duplicate of 23718
