However I have found that when playing back video (MythTV and xine) I
get a corruption line that gradually moves down the screen. Kind of
reminds me of tracking on a VCR! I've tried various different MythTV
options like XVMC and they all either have the same problem or very
jerky video instead.

2. Rebuild the Intel Xorg driver with a patch that adds an option
called "XvPreferOverlay" to give the video overlay port higher
priority. Just add Option "XvPreferOverlay" "true" to the device
section in your xorg.conf.
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://tikei.de/intel-prefer-hardware-overlay.diff">http://tikei.de/intel-prefer-hardware-overlay.diff</a>
The latter will also work with all other applications, whereas the
first patch only fixes mythtv playback.</pre>

Thank you very much. I've rebuilt the driver with the patch and turned
the option on as this seemed like the cleanest solution and the video
is now flawless. Don't you just love open source.<br>
