Green colors and/or garbled during video playback with ATI GPU

Lowet Wrote:Ok, i've gotten this to work now so I thought I should give a detailed explanation of how I did. Fist of all: I have a Radeon X1950 Pro card and I'm running Vista.
Take the atioglxx.dl_ from Catalyst 7.4. The file can be found in:
"C:\ATI\SUPPORT\7-4_vista32_dd_ccc_enu_44985\Packages\Drivers\Display\LH_INF\B_45162"
Then in a cmd window run: "expand atioglxx.dl_ <folder>" and rename atioglxx.dl_ --> atioglxx.dll. Finally place it in the XBMC folder and voila, colors! At least that worked for me.
More catalyst drivers might work as well, the 7.3 did not however.

Hope this helps someone.

top man!! This sorted my built in radeon 1250. Didn't realise we had to expand the atioglxx.dl_

did you expand the atioglxx.dl_ ? then copy the larger file to the xbmc directory?

I'm on XP and it didn't work either.

It's back to Media Portal for me, I'm getting nowhere with this.

If it could just playback videos and nothing else it would be great, but I guess it's early days for XBMC.

I'm using Vista 32 bit. I tried doing this trick using the latest ATI Drivers, but the video was still green and distorted. I then downloaded the the older ATI 7.4 Drivers and the green is gone.

Confirmed! atioglxx.dll from 7.4 drivers solved video problems on my Radeon X600pro

Is there a way to adopt this workaround for the linux build of xbmc?

the 7.4 driver fixed my problem on vista. Although the video playback is a bit choppy.

I have a Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H with the AMD690G Chipset and a onboard Radeon x1250 graphics card
This fix did help for me, but its far from flawless!

I've commited a fix for ATI/AMD to svn. The question now is, does it break the drivers you've found to be working.
