 I am running svn 14618 on a VIA CN400 (SP8000E), with a separate backend.

 When watching an HD 1080i recording, after 2 minutes the video/audio
 begins to stutter and does not recover.

 The stutter first occurs with the following log error repeated many times:
  2007-11-08 22:10:48.473 VideoOutputXv Error: XvMCPutSlice: 11

 Subsequently the following error appears:
  2007-11-08 22:10:48.839 VideoOutputXv: Frame e is in use by avlib and so
 is being held for later discarding.

 And stuttering gets worse as an additional frame is held:
  2007-11-08 22:10:59.519 VideoOutputXv: Frame e is in use by avlib and so
 is being held for later discarding.
  2007-11-08 22:10:59.520 VideoOutputXv: Frame H is in use by avlib and so
 is being held for later discarding.

 Is it possible to release the frames so that they are not held after the
 error to the XvMCPutSlice2 call?

 Additional (brief) log is attached; more detail is available if needed.
