Hi All, I have a similar problem on my EPIA M9000.
I'm using MythTv 0.18 with a Nova-T USB2 DVB device. My log from the frontend looks like this: 2005-06-07 22:18:58.626 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-06-07 22:18:58.627 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 720, h 576, chroma 1, vld 0, idct 1, mpeg2, sub-width 0, sub-height 0, disp, p<= 64, 640 <=p, port, surfNum) 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 Trying XvMC port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 720, h 576, chroma 1, vld 0, idct 0, mpeg2, sub-width 0, sub-height 0, disp, p<= 64, 640 <=p, port, surfNum) 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 Trying XvMC port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.629 Found a suitable XvMC surface 0 XvMC found and using MC surface 2005-06-07 22:18:58.630 Using XV port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.630 Broadcasting free space avail Unable to create XvMC Blocks 2005-06-07 22:18:58.654 Broadcasting free space avail I'm sure that the Unichrome XvMC drivers are working correctly because using the MythDVD plugin I am able to watch DVD's using xine with -V XvMC perfectly. If I switch off the XvMC option in the MythTv frontend settings then as soon as I try and watch live tv the entire system looks-ups and I have to reboot. Anyone got any idea's?
