[FEISTY] Launching several instances of Codeine causes problems

[Christophe Dumez]

Binary package hint: codeine

If I have two instances of codeine running, then the second one won't display the video correctly : the colors in the video will be altered a lot. This happens even if the video in the first codeine instance is paused.

I have to close the first instance of codeine to get the second one to work correctly.

Looks like the problem comes from this (from console output) :

First instance:
video_out_xv: using Xv port 73 from adaptor ATI Radeon Video Overlay for hardware colorspace conversion and scaling.

Second instance:
video_out_xv: Xv extension is present but I couldn't find a usable yuv12 port.
              Looks like your graphics hardware driver doesn't support Xv?!

Here is my devide section in xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
        Identifier "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon X600 (RV380)"
        Driver "ati"
        BusID "PCI:3:0:0"
        Option "DRI" "true"
        Option "ColorTiling" "on"
        Option "EnablePageFlip" "true"
        Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
        Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps"
        Option "RenderAccel" "true"
        Option "AGPFastWrite" "on"
EndSection
