I've applied all but hdtv-recorder and xvmc-efficiency.

hdtv-recorder seems, well, messy.  There's quite a lot of completely unchecked 
char * access going on in the new files, and I don't really want to have to 
fix bugs in that later on.. =)

xvmc-efficiency is the cause of the horrible video quality I mentioned 
earlier.  Without the patch, xvmc decoded video is full of corruption.  I do 
have a card that doesn't do IDCT accel, so it seems like you've broken the MC 
only case.
