Are you using the NVidia Drivers (for X) or not? So far I just set up X with the necessary NVidia Options, as can be seen in:

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=15600

Now I yust emerged it, and it seems to work, (I cant test it, as i dont have a TV here).
At least the output of --probe seems to make sense.
Will try this evening.

It appears from these lines that you are using "su" from a regular user account. You must first issues "xhost +" to enable access from any user, and then try nvtv. I haven't tried "nvtv"... yet... but I know that this security issue is common to any X program run from "su". Possibly nvtv can be run from a regular user login as well?

if this won`t work, also do a 'export DISPLAY=:0.0' (without '') as root and then try to run nvtv ...

and otherwise start the deamon
/etc/init.d/nvtvd start
to make tv out available to ordinary users.

This would be the best approach. I tried it, it works for me, although the command is /etc/init.d/nvtv start (no "d"). To add it to the normal startup process use "rc-update add nvtv default".

Oops, sorry, I didn't check the exact command...
Thanks for clearing it up.
