I see by looking in the settings database that XvMC was indeed turned on - turning it off results in different output when I run mythtv, but I'll have to wait until I get home to check if it's actually playing on the screen. > Can you play movies manually in xine or mplayer? I tested mplayer out briefly, but hadn't tried running it full screen (mainly because I'm not familiar with mplayer) For some reason I thought it had to be a problem with my kernel config or something. I'll let you know if it worked - thanks! Greg _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
