I know you said you tried before but the way to fix this (assuming you<br>
have enough GPU memory) is to bump up the VDPAU buffer size. Start at<br>
the max and if it works, start dropping it down to more reasonable<br>

to fix it for 0.24!)<br><br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Did a little experimenting.. took my primary desktop (core i5@4.2ghz, GTX-460) did a mythdora install, updated to 23-fixes, and 260.19.21.. issue still happens with "default" settings</div>
