[mythtv-users] VIA EPIA XvMC problems upgrading from 0.18 to 0.19

[Chris Hubball]

Hello,

I'm having trouble Watching TV with VIA XvMC since I upgraded from 0.18
to 0.19.

It worked well with 0.18, but now I find that when I hit Watch TV, I get
a blank screen for 20 seconds before the pictures comes up and then it
uses 80% CPU so I guess XvMC isn't running.

Below is a log with -v playback.  My interpretation is that playback
starts with XvMC, then for some reason it decides to restart XvMC and
this time fails with: "VideoOutputXv: Failed to grab xv port 68"

I'm guessing the second attempt to use XvMC is failing because the first
attach is still active?!

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks,
Chris.
