Thanks for giving it a go :) Are you sure you have spu-gcc correctly
installed? I've seen these errors before when gcc tries to compile spu
code (happens if you try and compile libmythtv before running
make_spu.sh)

What output do you get from spu-gcc -dumpversion?

I've also just uploaded a pre-compiled binary which you can drop into
libs/libmythtv/cell - though I'm not sure whether it will work or
not:-

Did everything else compile as expected - or did it complain about
mythspu_yuv2rgb.cpp again?

Thanks and regards
