myth 0.20 from atrpms(build 155), nvidia 9631(yes, legacy). Xorg
7.1.1, KDE window manager. glx disabled
and I'm currently performing this on mythfront start
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings --assign="XVideoBlitterSyncToVBlank=0" \
--assign="XVideoTextureSyncToVBlank=0" \
--assign "SyncToVBlank=0"
The glx disablement and the nvidia-settings were all grasps at
stability(various mailing list posts).. I had a brief but
wife-alienating lockup series of events where watching live TV would
lock up X(ie, reboot time). This was in the XvMC days as well.
