Linux Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto)

Whatever you have plugged into your HDMI is evil! Monitor without EDID information?
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Aha, hmm that's either the Yamaha amplifier or that Samsung TV.
How come it works with the older kernel?

You can do whatever you want on your private PC, if you want to have breakage, incompatibilities, version conflicts, compile failures, runtime errors and so on - continue to build with the "packages your distribution has tested".

It you push it a bit, you could include version of libc, libpthread, and so on and even a given kernel version! Again, that's not th way it will be build by distributions and this will not iron out compatibility issues.
Hi!

I have AMD E350 (MSI E350IA-E45) and Panasonic LR37U20 TV connected via HDMI.
There is overscan in 1080p mode.
With fglrx it disables by
Code:
aticonfig --set-pcs-val=MCIL,DigitalHDTVDefaultUnderscan,0
And I knew that it shows picture with pixel-in-pixel accuracy.
But how I can do it with radeon oss?
I'm using
Code:
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set underscan on --set "underscan hborder" 49 --set "underscan vborder" 28
at every boot now, but I have feeling that it is not so accurate as in fglrx.
May be there is another more correct way (disable overscan in vbios or etc). I can't find nothing in google.

By the way the overscan is in console too (during boot), but it's not important for xbmc box.
Arch Linux x86_64 (kernel 3.13.0-rc7), AMD Fusion E-350 (Zacate), 2Gb RAM, AMD HD6310, LCD TV Panasonic LR37U20, XBMC Gotham 13 Alpha + PVR Addons Git, IPTVSimple 1.8.1, IPTV (SD+HD).
Question 
I am experiencing the exact same problem 'javum'.

I am also running an AMD E350 and a Panasonic television. I had everything running perfectly with XVBA and when I decided to update my HTPC software today I came across this new recommended setup and decided to give it a go. After a long time setting up I discovered that yes it does offer improved performance but I was unable to get the picture to fit the screen correctly. I have scoured the internet and the only method I could find was the same as yours using 'xrandr' underscan options however the quality is vastly inferior to the same ATI fglrx command I used previously (aticonfig --set-pcs-val...etc.).

I have attempted to rectify the issue using XBMC video calibration but this is just as bad as the xrandr commands. And like many modern TVs there is no option for underscan only overscan.

Can anyone offer any insight into how to solve this problem? Huh

Otherwise the Radeon OSS driver really isn't usable for me.

Thank you kindly in advance!
Try setting the TV into 'Just Scan' mode for that input - if your TV has that option.
Does settings>system>video calibration fix it?

You can try from Panasonic menu > picture > screen settings > H size > size 1 also make sure over scan is off.

No, It hasn't. The overscan is turned off on TV.

Yes, I can fix it via video calibration, but video is something blurry, not such as in fglrx.

No, it has not such option. The overscan is turned off on TV.
The problem is in videocard. Please, read more carefully my and Da-chosen-one posts.

Changed some settings on the tv and in settings and now it works with the latest kernel.
Thanks for giving me some advice on where the error was located.

I also have the same problem, that javum friend and Da-chosen-one.
my pc is AMD E350 and Panasonic television.
man xrandr

everything you need is there.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
My guess is that you guys with overscan, zoomed the picture to try to get rid of the underscanning that the flgrx drivers caused. I get overscan on my Panasonic tv if I change the "HD Size" to 1. With it set to 2, it displays fine and I don't have to mess with any settings (like aticonfig display attributes).
Hello!
I'm trying to add Live tv functionality to my xbmc installation, and encounter what xbmc crashed and restarted when trying to display TV stream.
This happen only if VDPAU enabled, if i disable VDPAU live TV shown.
Can you help?
