[mythtv-users] XvMC question

[Joseph A. Caputo]

Okay, I grabbed yesterday's CVS and rebuilt with XvMC support.  I'm 
pretty sure it's in there, since when I do an 'ldd' on mythfrontend, it 
shows a dependency on libXvMCNVIDIA_blah_blah_blah.so.  This is with 
the -4363 NVidia drivers and a GF4MX.  The thing is, I'm not sure if 
it's working or what I should be seeing.  I don't think the relevant 
code is being run, as I still see a color OSD, and my CPU usage during 
playback doesn't seem to have changed (I wasn't expecting much, but I 
thought the change might at least be noticeable in 'top').

So, right now I'm pursuing 2 possibilities:  either I've mis-configured 
something, or XvMC isn't invoked/doesn't help for RTjpeg playback (all 
my recordings are RTjpeg).

Can anyone shed any light on this?
