It's just a guess, but "0/XVideoBlitterSyncToVBlank=0" might
be<br>
relevant. See if you can enable that option. I'm not sure what the<br>
difference between Xvideo textures and blitter is or what MythTV
uses.<br><br>
Also, looking in nvidia-settings on my desktop (which currently only
has<br>
a VGA CRT connected), I see the setting "Sync to this display
device,"<br>
which seems to correspond to your XVideoSyncToDisplay attribute. It<br>
seems to me that you need to select the TV as the display to sync
to,<br>
but I don't know what "256" means.<br><br>
