[mythtv-users] NVidia Drivers

Myth Users,

A quick recap of where I am at. My myth front end will only play one
video per instance. If I try and play a second all I get is sound.
Restarting the front end allows one more play. I have been told that
is because of my faulty NVidia drivers, and that with the faulty
drivers it is the opengl renderer that causes the problem.

So I have set my playback profile to slim, which if I read the docs
right will disable the opengl renderer. Alas I continue to experience
the same problem. Also I have downloaded from NVidia, installed, and
tested 3 different drivers. These include 169.12, 169.09, and 169.07.
After each try X starts up just fine with the NVidia logo, but MythTV
still does the same thing.

I am stuck. Any more advice? Thanks for your help so far.

Mike
