[mythtv-users] Video Playback Issues

Hey all.  It's been a while.  This is a good things.

I have my Myth box up and running for a few years with no real issues.
 Recently my NVidia Card (JATON VIDEO-498PCI-DLP GeForce 9500 GT 1GB
128-bit DDR2 PCI Low Profile Ready Video Card) went after 2 years (fan
broke) so to keep it simple, I bought the same card.  After installing,
booted up and things looked fine.

Now however during playback, the video is fine but then the screen goes
black, and slowly a few areas will appear until it all comes back.  Also
when this happens, the sound blips (if that makes sense,  Doesn't really
interrupt the sound but you can tell something happened).  Anyway it also
has had distored color and sometimes freezes the frontend.  No CPU cycles
being taken when frozen either.

So any ideas on the problem.  Is the replacement card bad.  Is there
another problem?

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,
steve
