I used totem because I could start up a movie on my tv with it like:
totem --fullscreen --display :0.1 somepic.avi
This used to work like a charm, now I get:
The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 37 error_code 8 request_code 141 minor_code 19)
etc.
I have no idea what change could have caused it. I tried purging and reinstalling.
Grrr.
Can somebody help me? Otherwise, I would love to find a way to make xine startup on the tv but I could not find it.
Thanks.
Edit: If I *start totem on the tv* and open a movie it will play. If I start it up from a console on the first monitor with args "--display :0.1" it will start up on the tv. But if I try to give both "--display :0.1" and a moviename it will crash. Seems it cannot make the jump to play across monitors anymore.
SOLVED Somehow the original totem I had installed disappeared from my system. So I reinstalled it but for the screen jump I had to install totem-xine in stead of just totem.
Pff what a relief.
