Tim,

I've been quietly reading through your thread, and got XvMC going on my PNY 6200 as well.

--> cat /etc/X11/XvMCConfig
libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1

 --> ldd /softlib/bin/mythfrontend  | grep -i xvmc
        libXvMCW.so.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXvMCW.so.1 (0xb6e47000)
        libXvMC.so.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXvMC.so.1 (0xb6e43000)

My question is regarding the "greyscale OSD fix".  you stated below, "i implemented the greyscale OSD fix".....i am also seeing the greyscale OSD problem after enabling XvMC, could you please tell me what the fix is for it?

thanks.



So, I did one final test.  I implemented the greyscale OSD fix.  It 
fixed the greyscale OSD problem, and seems to have improved the problems 
with staticy sound when the OSD is being displayed, but it does not 
really fix the problem.  With the OSD up, the frontend uses 60% CPU, and 
Xorg uses about 35%.  I guess XvMC and the OSD just don't work very well 
together.

Tim
