Hi folks!

I`m currently turning one of my boxes into a cd/dvd/mp3/whatever-player. 
I already installed freevo, mplayer, xine and everything, and it works 
great.

The only problem is: the TV-Out of the used Rage128 only works with the 
standard Vesa-driver. When playing low-res files such as vcd this is not 
much of a problem. But when i try to play a dvd the cpu-usage climbs up 
to 100% due to software scaling, which is not really acceptable for an 
xp 2000+...

So here is my Question:
Does anyone know how to use an accelerated driver with the TV-Out of my 
card?

relevant system specs:

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 
RF/SG AGP

[ebuild R ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r2 -3dfx +3dnow +bitmap-fonts -cjk 
-debug -dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server -insecure-drivers +ipv6 -minimal 
+mmx +nls -nocxx +opengl +pam +sdk +sse -static +truetype-fonts 
+type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xprint +xv 0 kB

Thanks in advance
