[mythtv-users] XvMC for an EPIA Box (Playing DVDs on a Mini-ITX)?

I have MythTV running on a Mini-ITX (EPIA) box and DVD performance is
extremely bad.
First off:
The system is EPIA CL-10000 board with the CLE266 graphics chipset. I
am running Ubuntu (Breezy) and I have recompiled the kernel to enable
Unichrome support and X indicates that direct rendering is enabled.
Although TV plays back perfectly (at least at 640x480), trying to play
a DVD pushes the CPU to 100% usage and the video is horribly garbled.
I am to understand that I need to use XvMC to enable the native MPEG-2
decoding hardware that this board is equipped with. The problem is
that I don't know how.
What should I do to compile or add in the support for XvMC? Does
anyone have a Debian package of MPlayer or Xine with it integrated?
Thanks!
