[mythtv-users] 0.21 Not Viewable on VIA EPIA M10K

[Gareth Glaccum]

My machine has the via chpset, and was originally set to use XvMC. I found that setting the interlace to progressive for a recording removes the choppiness in 0.21 (this is more than just an interlacing problem, also caused audio issues).
However, in .21, my colours are skewed.

  My understanding is that Standard XVMC and VIA XVMC do not work under 0.21 and the M10K hardware is unable to support video in any other mode. Effectively that means until someone generates an rpm with a patch, the M10K is unsupported in 0.21.

    I've not had a chance to do any investigation yet but I've upgraded my
    M10K from Minimyth 0.20b?? to 0.21b40 and am having the same problems
    with choppy, in fact not really playing at all, video and frontend
    crashes.  It had been working perfectly for months.  Really not sure
    where to start at all!
