[mythtv-users] Video player is all big green blocks

[David Fishburn]

Myth 0.20.2
Ubuntu 6.10

This was all working very well until I put an additional tuner in my box.
It is a video4linux card.
Thinking this is causing the issues, I have change the myth-backend
start script to:
rmmod saa7134_also
rmmod saa7134

So no additional modules are loaded.

Anyway, Myth was working just fine today.
The machine froze.
I rebooted and now, when I play any of my recorded videos (the same
one I was watching just before the freeze) the screen is full of lines
of square green boxes.  The audio plays fine.  This happened earlier
in the week.  I eventually (in desparation) went into setup, video
settings and changed the mpg filetype to libmpeg2 from internal and
back again.  Suddenly, playback was working again.  Now after the
reboot, the green blocks are back and I can't fix it.

The frontend log shows the following:

I am using the nVidia binary driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-9755.
1080i (1920x1080) to my LCD TV.

Any suggestions on what this could possibly be, or try.
Getting desperate here.

Thanks,
Dave
