Hey ppl,

Great software. But basically ... I installed windows on my Debian Linux host, just for tv-out. Its not working very well in my linux, and I don't have a will to debug the problem (When tv out cable is connected, I get blank screen instead of seeing gdm/kdm when system boot up.

So, I thought, maybe using windows in virtualbox, and playing movies from it would be a good idea. So, anyone ? Is it possible (and how, or where can i find some docs) to get tv-out working in virtualbox ?

Btw, I have a ATI radeon 9600 pro.

So, just to be clear, once more.. i just would want to have access to tv-out in virtualized windows. Not to enable it on my linux.

Thanks.
S

Please see the VirtualBox FAQ for more info on what you ask. It's been asked as why the videocard isn't seen with all it's power. It just isn't there in a VM. Read the faq, follow the links with more info.
