[mythtv-users] nVidia and XvMC

When I try to fire up watching live TV with XvMC hardware acceleration
enabled, I get an X11 BadAlloc error with my nVidia 6200 TC and XOrg 6.8.2.
I'm running a subversion branch with 0.18 fixes, and my system is configured
with 2 HD-3000s and the latest NVIDIA x86-64 drivers. The processor is an
AMD Athlon 64 3200+, and I have 1 GB of ram in it. When I disable the XvMC
acceleration, it plays back, but it's very, very choppy, and the sound gives
tons of prebuffering pause errors, or something like that. xdpyinfo tells
me that I have both XVideo and XVideo-MotionCompensation extensions
available. Anyone have any hints or additional configuration questions to
help me out? I'd appreciate it tremendously.
Thanks in advance,
Will
