BSPlayer having problem with NVidia drivers 61.77 and TV-out

peter · #1 (**permalink**) 30th July 2004

I'm using BSPlayer v1.00.810. When I was having NVidia drivers v56.72 the movie on TV was OK. When I installed new drivers v61.77 the screen on TV was black and just every few second it blinked.
I saw picture on PC monitor but not on TV monitor. When the picture on PC monitor blinked then it was on TV monitor. This problem is under Overlay Mode1 and Overlay Mode2.

I don't know if this problem is in BSPlayer or NVidia drivers. If this problem is in BSPlayer then I hope that you will fix it as soon as possible.

Am I the only one with this problem?
I'm using now old drivers v56.72
I also try drivers v61.76 but I have the same problem with them.

I also have GeForce2 MX400 with NVidia drivers v61.77 (on WinXP Pro), but I don't have "your" problems.
Maybe you download wrong drivers:
Win95/98/Me - http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...9x_english.exe
WinNT4 - http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...t4_english.exe
WinXP (Media Cenet Edition) - http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/m...ional_whql.exe
Win2000/XP - http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...xp_english.exe

Is that happening in all nVidia's display mode (Dualview, Clone Mode, Single Display)?
I prefer Single Display Mode for monitor and TV.

Dualview and Single Display mode are not good because I can't get full screen on TV and the picture is black and white. Only in Clone Mode the picture is in colours and full screen.
I use program TVTool for full screen. If I use Dualview or Single Display then TVTool automatic switch on Clone Mode.

You must set correct resolution for your TV (and monitor), and also set PAL output format (for your TV) instead of NTSC. For more information download http://download.nvidia.com/Windows/6...sers_Guide.pdf

I try Single Display mode and set PAL output format, like you said and the picture was ok. This was with drivers v56.72.

Then I installed drivers v61.77 and there the problems begin.
The picture in Single Display mode was't blinking, but it was very bright. If I set brightnes in driver settings, BSPlayer and TV to minimum then the picture of movie was ok but the subtitles was too dark. Then I switch back to PC monitor I saw that the picture is very dark. When I changing brightnes on TV I obviously changing brightnes on PC too :x . Then I saw there is no sound and I saw that the volume was on minimum. I try this few times and everytime when i switch to Single Display (TV) the volume goes to minimum :? .

This was heppening with drivers 61.77, with drivers v56.72 I have no problems.
Obviously is something wrong with NVidia new drivers :!:
