Ok, I've done the following: chmod a+s for /usr/bin/mythfrontend:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mythlogs]# ll /usr/bin/mythfrontend -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 955532 Mar 5 02:08 /usr/bin/mythfrontend chmod a+w for /dev/rtc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mythlogs]# ll /dev/rt* crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 10, 135 Mar 17 13:56 /dev/rtc I've attached my mythfrontend.log (with -v playback). In the log, I started up mythfrontend, watched prerecorded 1080i for a few seconds (choppy video) and then watched prerecorded 720p (choppy as well). >From a previous comment from Jarod, I'm still getting this message when I try to watch 1080i: Using XvMC version: 1.0 2005-03-19 08:45:58.769 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 1920, h 1, c 0, i 2, m 0,sw 0, sh 139, disp, p<= 139, 10880 <=p, port, surfNum) and this when trying to watch 720p: Using XvMC version: 1.0 2005-03-19 08:46:14.357 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 1280, h 1, c 0, i 2, m 0,sw 0, sh 139, disp, p<= 139, 7200 <=p, port, surfNum) If the "h 1" is a problem, is there a way to fix this? Jarod mentioned >Something looks goofy there... w 1920 is correct, but I don't think h 1 is >right (should be 1080)... Have you possibly made changes to the video output >size, done something with xrandr, etc, and accidentally set the horizontal >size to 1? I have not changed anything on the video output size (does that mean my xorg.conf; if so, I've attached it). I also haven't done anything with xrandr (don't know what that is) nor fiddled with any of the mythtv settings around screen size, overscan, etc. Thanks, phlepper -- I hear and I forget.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
