Well, it would disable Xv.  However, in reality--regardless of what you 
think--that's not what you're after.  Fix your driver/Xv.  (But, feel 
free to try this.)  Without Xv, you lose GPU scaling, tear-free video 
playback, and more.

In "mythfrontend --help".  Oh, and note that NO_XV is not a command-line 
option--it's an undocumented environment variable.  It's not documented 
because the only time anyone would really want to use it is to create 
screenshots of video playback.
