I ran xvinfo and got the following:
X-Video Extension version 2.2
Screen #0
no adapters present
I've tried changing adapters in mplayer preferences but I always get
the same message. I'm not knowledgeable enought to understand what you
are asking me to do. I need a bit more detailed instruction on how to
accomplish this.
Thanks
Pat
