[mythtv-users] Xv strangeness...

[Matt Mossholder]

Answering my own question (Don't you hate that? :)   Appears this is a
problem related to the 6000 and 7000 series cards, when using DVI and Xv
with texture sync to VBlank ENABLED. Disabling this resolved the problem
but leads to tearing. Better than nothing, I guess.
