DVD player works fine, and using mplayer to test the captured video, that MythTV captured, works fine.
Intersting note, I get a message: The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec. VDecoder init failed :( But no crash, I never get that message when it crashes. Not to worried about smooth playback at this point, as this is my testing backend, but need it to be stable enough and not crash!!
