[mythtv-users] Which AGP Support Driver?

[Mike Drons]

I originally had no setting in my config file, now I have NvAGP set to 1, it
seems the Video has more jerks in it.  What was the default setting if
nothing was configured?

That's correct.  Give it a try, let me/us know if it seems to make a 
difference.
