I thought I would chime in here also. I've been following the recent YUV driver improvements closely and this is the best version yet. I also get the delayed 'Pause' of 3-4 seconds when using MythTV, but only after playing a video through the Xv interface. If I watch recordings with MythTV after a reboot, pauses are normal (i.e. fast). This is still an improvement, because older versions would make MythTV so unstable I had to reboot after watching a video via Xv before watching recordings again. While this is an improvement, it appears that some decoder settings are not being restored quite right. All in all, good work by both John and Ian. Let me know if I can help in any way. Regards, Randy P.S. I'm in NTSC land.
