</div>Reports about this pop-up occasionally so I'll try to clarify:<br>
<br>
You need a compositing window manager to see both the hud osd and<br>
video at the same time.<br>
<br>
I recommend xcompmgr because it can run in parallel to your normal<br>
window manager and serve the necessary compositing extensions as an<br>
addition. Of the compositing managers I've tried it also seems to be<br>
the fastest / least cpu intensive.<br>
<br>
So install xcompmgr and run:<br>
xcompmgr -n&<br>
<br>
prior to starting vdr-sxfe --hud<br>
<br>
You'll need to setup xorg.conf so that compositing is enabled. IOW you<br>
should have lines similar to following in you xorg.conf:<br>
<br>
Section "Extensions"<br>
Option "Composite" "Enable"<br>
EndSection</blockquote><div>Thanks alot! xcompmgr is definitely takes less than compiz that I've tried to use.<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

<br>
Concerning your other display issues (opengl osd etc.) I'd recommend<br>
trying without patched vdr and maybe latest version of xine-lib.</blockquote><div>False alert, I guess I had left a remote session to HTPC from other computer, so that caused high CPU usage.<br>Right now I've set with XV video and I have about 12-15% CPU with cheap tvtime (mplayer mode) deinterlacing <br>
and 18-20% CPU with non-cheap deinterlacing mode which in my opinion gives best results I could find so far.<br><br>OpenGL takes about 2-3% more than that.<br></div></div><br></div>
