[mythtv-users] losing osd

Hi,

Occasionally (with mythvido or recordings) I lose the OSD while
playing media. I have the exit recording menu turned on - not sure if
that is relevant to it not responding to the escape key. This affects
seek, menu and volume.

it often happens once watching a few programmes and scrolling around
the recordings browser quite a bit (once around the titles list is
often enough to often trigger it - but this is a feeling rather than a
verified/reproducable thing).

The system is a zotac ion board running ubuntu lucid lynx (512MB
shared ram). The log is showing VDPAU errors; the system has mythbuntu
daily builds; is pretty much up to date (maybe a couple of weeks out)

The only way to restore the system seems to be (as hobby linuxer) is
to kill mythfrontend.real

is this a known issue? Anyone else experiencing this? any config
changes I could try?

thanks.
