GP2X Tv-out

[Aimless_E]

Basicly I was wondering how to get my program, and many other programs out for the gp2x. To display on the TV correctly.

Does it require HW-SDL or can we use the SDK provided by GPH?

Is it simply in the way Im setting up the display?

Inquring(spelling?) minds want to know.

If you're using SDL then linking with either GPH's libs or my HW-SDL should allow you to use TV-out.
For GPH's I think it relies on the user entering TV mode before running the program whereas HW-SDL (at least the new version will when I get around to tidying it up) has a function for switching between TV and LCD.
The function is actually just an ioctl to /dev/gpio (I think - I've not got the source at hand.)

Some older programs don't work too well with TV-out as they were written before the TV-out cable was available and they set the display registers in an incompatible way.

Kepp in mind that useing hw sdl gives you a huge speed boost over gph's sdl as well as other fetures, you should realy use it.

Thanks I'll do that
