Hi Guys,

I have installed FC5 and .20 on a machine that previously worked correctly, 
especially the display.

When I try to watch live TV or a recoded show, I get the following output.

2006-11-01 10:36:39.860 TV: Attempting to change from None to WatchingLiveTV

The hardware hasn't changed at all so,

Is this Xvmc related, do I need to install extra software ??, is .20 or FC5 
more picky ??

The video card is a built in one to the motherboard, the motherboard is an 
Asrock VM800 and the graphics is listed as " Intergrated UniChrome Pro 3D 
Graphics in VIA K8M800 chipset "

Can someone help please???

Any help appreciated.
