Aha!. I'm not so bothered, it can wait. I have a separate DVD player
which does vcd as well. I'm waiting for the 0.12 release before I do my
next upgrade since I'm not using a prototype machine anymore, I rely on
my Myth box too much now :)

Yeah, I do have this on. Just think it's a bit too much for the card
really. It's only a GF4 MX. I'd be more concerned if it was a Radeon
9800 or a Parhelia. Im' experiementing now with different resolutions
and I think I'm getting somewhere with it.
