Hi All!

My first message here. I'm trying to get a fullscreen video running on
my TV at the same time as I use my desktop on the monitor. This works
fine with driver 45.23 but all drivers after that the video will only
flicker in white on the TV.

Anyone have solution for this? Read a few posts here that other users
experience the same problem but haven't seen any solution for it.
Except running driver 45.23 :)

Thanks for all replies!

Yes I've got 2 solutions.

1. You can make the TV as extended desktop and move the movieplayer on this
side and play the film.

2. You'll have to edit the n4_disp.inf file from
HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%, "{*}S 720x480 720x576=1
to
HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%, "{*}S 756x576=1

if you're using pal.
I don't know what about NTSC.
Perhaps it shoul look like this:
HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%, "{*}S 720x480=1

The you'll have to install the driver again.

The first solution was too much a workaround for me so I changed the
.inf file instead. Works great!! THANKS MAN!! I've been irritating
myself on this for six months now and been running the 45.23 driver
instead.. I'm now running 56.64..

Now there's only one more thing on this stupid card. When installing
the capture driver for the card and have the VIVO cable inserted the
computer blue screens and restarts at the logon screen to Windows XP.
Anyone know a solution for this? Been trying all drivers. A workaround
is not to have the VIVO connected at boot and insert it later on but a
solution is always better then a workaround :)
