ERR [Failed to set picture attributes: Invalid argument]

Post by will »

After fixing everyhting (log files, access, ...), I still get an error message in the /var/log/messages

Does anybody get that as well ? Do you have any clue how to fix it ???

Hi,

Do you know if you have STRICT_VIDEO_CONFIG set in your options? If so then it might be worth switching it off and seeing if that helps.

Regards,

Phil,

The current value is 0, it is the default value (I never changed that)

I get something similar
zmc-d0[2309]: ERR [Failed to set window attributes: Invalid argument]

Also STRICT_VIDEO_CONFIG is set to off (unchecked).

You will still get the error even with STRICT_VIDEO_CONFIG off, it just won't treat it as fatal. Does everything else work?
