Yep, the menu works with version 8178.
It looks a little faded out, but it is very much usable.

XvMC doesn't work very well with the post-6xxx drivers, but I
plan to fix that eventually. The VideoOutputXv repaint routine
needs to be changed to not paint over the image with the chromakey,
and the Chromakey OSD needs to be able to use the new X11 overlay
stuff instead of chromakeying (assuming that works of course).

I'll take a look at this at some point. In a past life I knew a bit about OpenGL.

Thanks, this will be useful...
