That may be my only option.
But the reason this whole thing is being pursued in the first place is
that hdtv playback works quite well on my "low-end" living room machine
unless the osd comes up. At which point everything falls apart with
stuttering, audio drops, and unusable menus.
As an aside, that machine (a 2500+ btw), absolutely requires that xvmc
be used or it can't even play back hdtv without it looking like a slideshow.
So, in summary, it would be nice if a usable osd in this slower machine
(with xvmc) can be done..
If it can't, then I'll eventually get sick of the stuttering and upgrade
the thing to something that can playback hdtv without xvmc.
I'd rather not spend the money if I don't have to....
The whole idea of using linux and mythtv, is to build a multimedia
system that doesn't neccessarily kill your pocketbook while providing a
great living room experience, plus the fact that it (mythtv) get's
better and better as each day goes by...

As an update, the same problem is happening on the 6200.
Hopefully this isn't the end of the road for something usable in the osd
department on these cards since they'll become more common than not in
the future..
Just don't use the Chromakey OSD if you have a card that doesn't use
overlays for Xv.
