Yea the XV extension probably helps quite a bit, but Im not getting the
blue tint. For what its worth, I setup the latest debian packaged alsa
(1.08) and told myth to use alsa for sound, and now I think everything
is working.  Im really happy with the video quality too, overall its
coming together nicely.
