Well I can't work out what is wrong in the driver and I have become increasingly suspicious that the BltFill in the firmware is going wrong occasionally. But having said that this is absolutely repeatable with my new code and I don't understand why. So anyway attached are 2 files for myth (that go in libs/libmythtv that avoid using bltfill and seem to work for me.
Any problems (or success) let me know, and if it all looks good I'll prepare another patch properly for myth.
