 I recently upgraded video cards and changed my setup to use VDPAU as the
 default renderer and decoder for all playback.  This works great for all
 recordings that can be decoded by VDPAU.  Fallback to software decoding
 for .mpg files works as well but when trying to playback old .nuv
 recordings that were software encoded, the player does not enable VDAPU
 rendering.

 Previously when trying to fallback to software decoding the renderer would
 also be forced to fallback to xv-blit and non-ideal deinterlacing.

 I don't have any playback logs on hand from prior to my patch, but I can
 rollback the patch and generate some if needed.

 I was able to get this working correctly with a simple patch.  This has
 worked flawless for me with a mix of HDPVR, raw MPEG2-TS, and MPEG4
 software encoded .nuv recordings.
