Terry,

Just wondering. Am I supposed to use your xvmc_vld_3 and 4.patch or are 
these issues fixed with the code Daniel checked in to fix the OSD?
I'm asking because I get prebuffers with xvmc-vld on my epia M10000 with 
current cvs (without your patches). The prebuffers get worse when the 
osd is displayed.
