[mythtv-users] HTPC based on MythTV

[Adam Rybak]

Hi, nvidia drivers are installed corretly. Im using driver 169.07 /latest
avaiable/.

Compilation parameters was:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mtv --disable-joystick-menu --disable-dbox2
--disable-hdhomerun --disable-firewire --enable-xvmc-opengl
--enable-opengl-video --enable-opengl-vsync --with-bindings=perl --tune=k8
--cpu=k8 --disable-lirc

On nvidia settings sync to vblank is checked.

When im playing hd channel (for example National Geographic HD from Cyfra+
Polish provider) i have lot of output:
..
2008-02-05 22:00:09.503 [h264 @ 0x3dd9a24]Interlaced pictures + spatial direct
mode is not implemented
2008-02-05 22:00:09.533 [h264 @ 0x3dd9a24]Interlaced pictures + spatial direct
mode is not implemented
2008-02-05 22:00:09.564 [h264 @ 0x3dd9a24]Interlaced pictures + spatial direct
mode is not implemented
..

Cpu usage is about 150-170% on mythfrontend, i got load about 4.oo - 5.5o!

I have in my xorg conf:
Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Videocard0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    Option "NoLogo" "True"
    Option "UseEvents" "True"

I dont know what else i can check :(

Help needed - i dont want to watch HD channels on windows :(
