video overlay is enabled when you insall open gl from www.opengl.com but it is not yet available for xp , they are still working on it.

hey bud go to www.download.com and click on utilities and drivers , then click on drivers , then display and video , then go to search box and type in voodoo 3 , it should give you nt drivers for the card it is the driver you need to enable tv and 3dfx tweaks , but video overlay is not enabled , until open gl updates there drivers for xp video overlay will not be enabled , im still working to find another possible alternative.

Hi,

I have a  Vodooo 3/3000 video card and was using a WIN98 with original drivers and it was ok.

I upgraded my o.s. to WIN2k and installed the original drivers for WIN2k. After that the settings for  Video Overlay (inside 3dfx Tools > 3DFX Color) are in grey . (they are not avaiable)

Besides that, in Monitor Type ( Control Panel - Display Properties - Settings -Advanced) appears a "Generic Television" (in win98 there wasn't that) and my monitor CMC-1703b. It seems that this card was set up for two video monitors. And the Generic Television is the primary one. I have tried but could not change it to secondary one.  

I reformatted my HD and after reinstalling O.S., I installed AMIGAMERLIN 2.5 SE FOR voodoo3/4/5(tm) Driver kit but the same problem remains.

Why does this Generic Television appear ?
Why video overlay option is not enable ?

I usually watch DVDs in my computer and I use these festures to adjust the color and brightness.  


Thanks for any help.
