You can verify this by specify -vo x11 to mplayer and the problem will disappear, though the image quality may not be as good or your machine may not be able to keep up. You are indeed correct. Guess I need to get myself a new video card. That explains why my mythbox is fine, too -- it's a

I just got my air2pc card hooked up, but am getting a strange artifact with 1080i content... basically, I have a big pink bar on the right hand side of the screen that covers up about 1/4 of the picture. This is not a mythtv-specific problem. I can record the content just fine, and play it
