I finally got it working by trial and error, by selecting the blue theme or
gant theme in version .13, and then upgrading to .14

Thanks for your help...

Ac3 and dolby 5.1 will not work yet (to my knowledge). Not sure about my 
next version, if Xebian can do it, then mine should as well.

I have:

xbv -auto 640 480 6.0 6.0
xvattr -a XV_DOUBLE_BUFFER -v 0

in my /root/startMyth script. The xbv adjusts the overscan and the 
avattr disabled double buffering to restore normal playback speed.

Darren Mak noticed that I have neglected to include Purple Galaxy and 
visor in the 0.14 version. Doh! You can either wait for me to add them 
back in or mount your file system in read write mode and extract them 
into the /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes directory.
