Good advice -- which I had followed until this. I started out wanting to install Xine, so that I could play DVDs including menu. Then I remembered that I could never transcode anything, or rip DVDs from Myth either. And XvMC mpeg2 hw decoding never worked for my PVR-250 either. Then I saw all these updates to MythTV and in a moment of greed/weakness thought that these would all be magically fixed. Oh well, live and learn. The irony is that my best hope for getting my Tomvo back up and running is to do an apt-get upgrade every day until it just works. At least, that's all I can think of.

I'd always assumed it was the latter. Tom _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
