[mythtv-users] Cannot get XVMC to work?

Hey all,

I've got a box (Athlon 3200+) that just croaks when trying to play back 
HD, so I'm trying to get XVMC working on it.

It's got a Geforce 6200 in it, with NVidia's 8178 drivers. I've enabled 
'Standard XvMC' as the decoder in my TV Playback Settings, however, when I 
go to play a MPEG2 file (either HD from my Air2PC or MPEG2 from my 
PVR500), I still get the color OSD, and HD is still sucking 100% of the 
CPU, and not working.

I'm not seeing anything at all about XvMC in the frontend logs.. is there 
a step I missed to get this working? Do I need to enable something in the 
xorg.conf?

Thanks!
