Does mplayer use its own dxr overlay window? It's been a while since I tried these things! > What has to be done to get dxr3 plugin to output on overlay? The em8300 drivers (for the dxr3) have the dxr3view application which gives you a window with the dxr3 output in it. _I think_ all I did was run vdr with the dxr3 plugin and then run dxr3view to see the output in a window. You need to specify that you want loopback when you load the dxr3 modules. % modinfo em8300 % modinfo bt865 (or the other one, depending on the dxr3 version!) to see which parameters. They are documented on the home page of the dxr3 drivers. Cheers, Laz
