#7358: MythVideo VDPAU playback fails.

 Priority:  major               |   Milestone:  unknown 
Component:  Plugin - MythVideo  |     Version:  0.22rc1 
 Severity:  medium              |     Mlocked:  0

 Playing two videos in a row that use VDPAU with MythVideo results in the
 UI hanging and errors in the log file.

 Reproducing this is fairly easy.  I start up Myth, go to MythVideo, and
 pick a DVD to play.  This first one plays fine.  Then, exit out of that
 DVD and pick a different one.  The "Please wait" screen comes up, and
 stays there forever.

 Looking in the log shows these errors :

 --------------------------------------------------------------

 If I play a DVD, go out and view a recorded show, and then pick a
 different DVD, it seems to work fine.  Which makes me suspect it may be an
 issue with how VDPAU is inited and deinited.   FWIW - I saw similar
 problems with the 0.21-fixes version with the VDPAU patch, except that was
 a problem throughout the entire system.



 The machine that I am using this on is an Acer Aspire Revo.   Specs are
