For what its worth here. I have a very similar setup to you. Try to disable opengl-vsync to get myth to start playing with regular Xv again. (at least until XvMC is fixed). Disabling opengl vsync is the only way I got it to work here. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
