of it on this list. I was recording MPEG2 with a PVR-150 and output via an
NVidia FX5200 svideo connection. I don't think I was using XVMC, I believe I
was just using the standard XV renderer. I don't have the system anymore so
I can't check the details. I didn't do any special configuration of any
kind, it just work. However it seems to be a very different setup than
yours, so I can't speak to much about your issues. It seems you know much
more about it than I do anyway. Good luck.
