           Summary: Xv displays garbage/green when X resolution is too high
                    (on cyberblade/i1)
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.7.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/Trident
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: nirpager at yahoo.com


My hardware: a Compaq laptop with Cyberblade/i1 and a 800x600 LCD, but using an
external monitor.

With resolutions higher than 1024x768, mplayer displays any video garbaged
and/or green.
xvinfo reports that the "maximum XvImage size" is 1024x1024 - so maybe that's
the limit.
However, I tried changing resolution on the fly with xrandr to just about any
resolution, and it was still garbaged.

I also tried setting "cybershadow" to "on", "display" to "crt" only, and also
tried switching to another virtual console and back to X after xrandr to maybe
reset some more registers...

I guess since xvinfo reports a 1024x1024 limit, I can't use Xv with higher
resolutions, but I don't know if changing to 1024x768 with xrandr should work or
not...

-----------------------
Here's some more info, which can basically be ignored...
The LCD is 800x600, but I set the laptop to use the external port only (LCD is
turned off) - plus, in 1024x768 Xv works ok, so the 800x600 doesn't seem to be
the problem.
I tried reconfiguring the X server, ended up regeneration a completely new
config file, and still the problem was always the same - >1024x768 fails.
Other that Xv, the X works fine with the higher resolutions (upto 1856x1392).
I tried almost every resolution possible, 1280x960, 1280x1024, 1400x1050 (with
and without the "Display1400" option), 1600x1200, 1792x1344, 1856x1396 - none
works. Only 1024x768 and lower works.
I've tried both with 24bit and with 16bit depths, no difference.
I tried using a "virtual" size, and without - no difference.
