Using notebook with S-VIDEO output for view DivX on TV
with VideoLAN the TV display the window of the operating system (Windows XP) but DON'T display any DivX the window of the video IS BLACK!
Why?
My notebook have ATI graphic chipset and S-video output built-in.Is what you're saying:
the display on the notebook computer looks OK (shows the video), but the output from the S-Video of the laptop shows a black rectangle (you see the outline of the player window, but black inside it) where the Video SW is playing? In other words, you are seeing the laptop display replicated to the S-Video port, just that the Videolan SW part isn't displaying properly.
If it is, I had this happen at work in the lab two weeks ago. For me it turned out that I had the wrong setting on my laptop's video. I use a Dell laptop, with an ATI graphic chipset, S-video output built-in.
I had to have the TV plugged in (an active load on the S_Video output port), then opened my laptop's graphics control panel. I selected the tab which controlled S-Video output, and changed between the different modes offered. (The PC documentation was terible in this area, but it turned out that there was a mode that showed Videolan as a black rectangle, then displayed video when I changed to a different option)
