Hey gang, So I upgraded last night to the latest CVS. Happily, everything compiled and went generally well. I was waiting excitedly to see some of the patches since the .17 release and had been putting of moving to CVS (which is my usual code-level) until a couple of patches made it in so I could be lazy and not have to apply them by hand.
I ran into a few problems, and I'd like some input: 1) Previous to moving to this version, my HDTV recordings played smoothly without XvMC or libmpeg support turned on. Now I have to used XVMC to even play them back smoothly 2) Sadly, XVMC has some issues: IT plays smoothly and does not cause any crashing of the frontend as it did on the .17 release (for me) but anytime *any* text or OSD stuff is on the screen it jumps like *crazy* until the OSD/text goes away. 3) During the initial install I had problems with the database upgrade in that I had already applied Jim Westfall's patch for the firewire connection broadcast stuff and then the latest CVS tried to add the "firewire_connection" column a second time. (Easily fixed) and even though after I resolved that issue the DB was "successfully" upgraded, mythbackend would not schedule programs due to program.manualid and recording.manualid being missing. Just thought someone should know and that I'd ask and see if there were any short-term solutions... -Todd
