Thanks Xavier,

Yes I found that last night also, sounds exactly like the issue.

I am not yet sure how to apply the patch within the minimyth gar-build
so have asked Pablo over there.

Currently trying to build it with xorg7.4 rather than 7.5, but not sure
if this will roll back to older openchrome or not.

VIA are currently the only chipsets with Composite or S video from what
I can make out. All the new Intel and NV are all HDMI or DVI only, and I
am not ready to bin the TV.

Will let you know how I get on.

James
