Re: [Coriander-devel] Issue display resolution and locks on modules. (even on 1920x1200 monitor)

So I setup the new monitor and it's running at 1920x1200. Coriander still crashes when trying to display the 1600x1200 video, but it now I can see an empty window while produces a bug report file (attached), which hopefully could be useful. Interestingly, GetXvInfo() says my display is 1920x1088. I decided to test a little more to see if I can get the 1088 up to 1200 by moving the menu bars, but I had no such luck. I tried hacking GetXvInfo to return 1200 instead of 1088, but coriander then segfaults, rather than creates a bug report. As I mentioned a while back.. Coriander will receive the video fine at 1600x1200, just displaying is the problem. But if coriander crashes twice, the modules then need to be reloaded (which is a second bug that needs looking into; I'm using raw1394,video1394,ohci1394,ieee1394) If anyone can offer assistance, or even pass this to other lists to see if someone can help, please do so. If anyone out there has the latest coriander running with 1600x1200 cameras, please, also, let me know. Thanks -----Original Message----- From: cor...@li...

Anyway, Any suggestions based on what I have below? We just got in a new 24" monitor that'll do 1920x1200 for that machine, so the problem may be moot (we'll have to see), but for the sake of fixing the bug, I'd still like to try and solve the issue. Is there a way to tell where this wrong max_width value is coming from (coriander or X)? Let me know. Jack -----Original Message----- From: cor...@li...

Hi, Sorry for the delayed response, I was working on other projects. Anyway, I got to check GetXvInfo(), and it seems to be setting max_width=1920 and max_height=1088. This seems somewhat weird considering that the resolution is 1600x1200. I guess 112 pixels are used for menu bars (1088+112=1200), but not sure how it gets the width of 1920. Any idea as to what I can do? I'm using the default window manager for fc8. I tried forcing max_width=1600, but it didn't seem to make any difference. The video config tool correctly says 1600x1200. Ideas? Thoughts? -----Original Message----- From: cor...@li... [mailto:cor...@li...] On Behalf Of Damien Douxchamps Sent: May 28, 2008 9:20 AM To: cor...@li...

I haven't triggered that kind of bug in a long time so I don't know if I can help much.

I am using the OpenGL desktop (compiz) on my ubuntu desktop at work and I have no problems (the graphic card is an Nvidia 8800GT, with Nvidia's drivers). A thing that may be tempted: try to display video and check when it breaks. Chances are it will fail when the video resolution is higher than your screen resolution. If that happens, check what is going on in GetXvInfo() (tools.c). Maybe coriander can't get the maximal width/height, or it's not handling this data properly. -- Damien ??
