Hi all!
Hiya!
Just upgraded my XFree86 to version 4.3.99.902 and installed the patch
from http://www.shipmail.org/~thomas/via/
Direct Rendering 3D is working fine (got nice marks on glxwheels), and
Xine is working fine through VeXP.
Further, I have recompiled MythTV after upgrading XFree86. (Do I need to
recompile qt as well???)
HERE'S MY PROBLEM: when I set MythTV to play back some previously
recorded video (or playing back live tv from my PVR-250), I only get the
audio out. -- Quite the opposite problem as many PVR users usually
encounter, ehh.....
Apart from the audio, I only get a green band at the top 5% of the
screen (rest is black).
Here's a dump of my mythfrontend output:

As you can see, MythTV correctly finds out that it should use the CLE266
Hardware decoder. However, there's just that green bar at the top of the
screen instead of something useful.
I'm running mythfrontend as 'root' btw, since I never get the line
"Using VIA CLE266 Hardware Decoding" but a "Killed" instead, if I'm
running as a mortal user.
Anyone have a clue about what I'm missing?
Cheers,
~Morten
