[ivtv-devel] Black screen after EPG fix - exacerbates jump forward/back hang

[Roger James]

John,   I applied your EPG fix to Myth. It cures the black screen after EPG on live TV problem. However, the occasional problem I was seeing with hangs when jumping forward or back in a recording, reappears with a vengeance. I have reported this problem before and have not been able to get a handle on it. The display always freezes with the skip forward/back OSD half faded out. If you then kill mythfrontend the desktop display has some strange transparency artefacts on it which can only be cleared with a reboot.   If I revert to the CVS versions of videoout_ivtv.cpp and videout_ivtv.h the problem goes back to its usual occasional appearance.   I am using the 0.2.0-rc3f driver.   Do you have any ideas on what may be causing this?  What other information would be useful to track it down.   Roger
