Also, watching HD content on my Mac Mini suddenly became a chore. Some settings would work to get 1080i back up on it's feet, but 720p from ABC seemed to be very jumpy/jerky no matter what I did. Crashes at least once/day (WAF is going VERY down at this point). Exiting a show would take up to three seconds.

There are several assembler-optimized routines in the ffmpeg code that Myth uses. *I* think that made a huge difference to the on screen display responsiveness but maybe I had some other config problem between the two builds.

It starts playback, but if I skip forward, back, pause or anything, it just keeps playing for about 2 minutes delaying my command. Finally, after a couple minutes elapses, it begins to play my commands. The kids needed to watch some football today, so I rolled back and didn't catch the log file. If I have a chance, I'll dig back into the log file from earlier today when I tested the build and post any results.
Another self reply...
yes.. the new version on sourceforge still spews forth the following from the log file:

Ultimately, I had to kill it from the command line.
