Testing, tweaking and scripting

Even though it has been quite for sometime I've done something for this project. I've been editing my scripts for startup and shutdown. Also today I moved the Mini to our kitchen for couple of hours to get some signal and see if the picture is ok in tv.

I did some overscan compensation to /etc/X11/xinit/Xclients file. Now the xrandr sets the borders to 15, 20, 15, 31. Final tweaking must be done for the actual tv unit I'm goint to be using.

I also tried to finetune Modelines from xorg.conf as I noticed that there is some minor sync problems when using Xine's deinterlace options. But I couldn't find perfect Modeline yet, so I need to revisit that again.

One thing that I managed to complish was to get the startup chime to mute. I booted to OS X and downloaded and installed StartupSound.prefPane. Now the Mini wakes up silently so nightly recordings doesn't wake up anyone :)

Next things I will do is to finish the scripts and make some channel logos.
