[mythtv-users] XvMC and mythtv-cvs on x86_64 problems

[Dean Vanden Heuvel]

no solutions.  this problem has been around in one form or another for a 
long time.  Seems as though it afflicts a smaller percentage of users, 
so it raises no real concern.  I too have issues, and have seen the 
synptoms move about as the code changes.  To date, there is no real answer.
