Hi Dylan,

Have you tried the patch from this thread:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/archive/MythTV_C2/Dev_F10/Improved_MythTV_DirectFB_output_P117567/

That fixed the problem with my G400 partially, though it's not perfect
yet. I do hope the patch gets committed to cvs, without it, the directfb
output seem to be broken at least for matrox cards.

best regards, juhis
