xdtv-2.3.3 ebuild states : The OSD font has moved. You probably should add this path to your X configuration: "/usr/share/fonts/xdtv" I can reproduce this when I remove this line from xorg.conf, but with it, everything is fine. Can you try this please ? You can do it by adding : FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/xdtv/" to the Section "Files" in xorg.conf I had FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/xdtv/" to the Section "Files" in my xorg.conf since then but it didn't work as i didn't etc-update because i am an idiot.After that 2.3.3 get masked i downgraded to xdtv-2.2.0-r1 and it kept failing with the same error.I unmask and emerge 2.3.3 etc-update and it work ok now.The only problem i have is that when i hit 'r' to record a movie i get Segmentation fault but i think that this doesn't have to do anything with this bug Ok, now I can reproduce it. The workaround for this problem with 2.2.0-r1 would be to launch it by setting your locales to C : LC_ALL=C xdtv It should work dy doing that. The problem with 2.3.3 is that it ships a ffmpeg snapshot with it and it might be affected by ffmpeg bugs; in fact it does not even build with the latest x264 snapshots. For now, removing internal ffmpeg in xdtv will break dvb support... so, unfortunately, there is no clean solution. I've disabled dvb support and patched 2.3.3 to link against the ffmpeg library rather than building another one to statically link it. xdtv-2.3.3 in now unmasked. I'll leave that bug open because you, indeed, found a bug and for now 2.2.0-r1 is stable on x86. Regards, Alexis. this bug should be fixed with having new ffmpeg and xdtv-2.4.0 now in stable, reopen if not |
