This is only useful in - the rare case of a DVD subtitle that would - only display properly in letterbox mode. - A good example for that are the animated - commentator's silhouettes on "Ghostbusters". - widescreen overlay - Overlay Video output on the VGA screen - with the option of switching on-the-fly - to tvout (see 'VGA Overlay Feature' below). - The more common variant of dxr3 overlay. - letterboxed tv - Send video to the tv out connector only. - This is the mode used for the standard 4:3 - television set. Anamorphic aspects will be displayed - letterboxed, pan&scan material will have the image - cropped. - widescreen tv - Send video to the tv out connector only. - This mode is intended for 16:9 widescreen tv sets. - Anamorphic and pan&scan content will fill the - entire screen, but you have to set the tv's aspect - manually. - -dxr3.keycolor: (overlay only) - 0x80a040 Hexadecimal RGB value of the key color. Should - not need to be changed. - -dxr3.color_interval: (overlay only) - 50.0 Tolerance for keycolor. A higher value allows higher - range of keycolors. Intended for compensation of - color errors on VGA output. Smaller value is better - for not using the "wrong" colors as overlay. - Meaningful range: 20.0 - 200.0 - -dxr3.scr_priority: - 10 Priority of the dxr3 scr plugin. <5 means that the - unix system timer will be used. >5 forces to use - dxr3 as sync source.

Noticable improvements have been - seen with 'glitchy' streams with intermittant pauses. - -dxr3.sync_every_frame: - 0 Tries to set a synchronization timestamp for every frame. - Normally this is not necessary, because sync is sufficent - even when the timestamp is set only every now and then. - -dxr3.correct_durations: - 0 Enables a small logic that corrects the frame durations of - some mpeg streams with wrong framerate codes.

Enable this - option for material which produces a vertical jitter on - screen. - -dxr3.enc_add_bars: - 1 Add black bars when the image has an aspect ratio - unhandled by the card. This is needed to maintain proper - proportions. - -dxr3.encoder: - Mpeg encoder backend to use. - Depending on what's compiled in, can be "fame" or "rte" - or "libavcodec". The "libavcodec" encoder makes use - of the ffmpeg plugin that already ships with xine-lib, - so you do not need to install any additional library - for that. Even better is that libdavcodec also provides - high quality with low CPU usage. Using "libavcodec" is - therefore strongly suggested. "fame" and "rte" are - still there, but the code has not been updated, so - current versions of both libs might fail to work. - -dxr3.fame_quality: (libfame encoder only) - 0-100 The quality setting of the fame mpeg1 encoding. Lower - is faster but gives noticeable artefacts. Higher is - better but slower. Values between 0 and 100, 90 - is a good initial value. - -dxr3.rte_bitrate: (librte encoder only) - 1000-20000 The bitrate in kbit/s of the librte mpeg1 encoder - output. Lower is faster, but it the difference is not as - big as with libfame's quality setting.
