Ok, I've now only got the XvMC-VLD option selected, but I still get the same problem, as soon as I try to watch LiveTv or a recording, the entire system locks up with a blank screen and I have to reboot. The entire system is crash, I can no longer connect via the network. I can't understand why this is appearing to be so difficault to get working, when I've read comments from other people saying that its working fine for them! I know that mythbackend is working fine. I have managed to record a program. I can go into the playback recording window and see a small preview of the recording and that works fine. Its only when I try watch it that it crashes. I can also watch the recording using Xine -V XvMC and selecting the nuv file. FYI: I'm using the VGA output to connect to my TFT Monitor (Resolution 1280,1024). Kernel 2.6.9. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks, I discovered the XvMC-VLD was not compiled in. Anyway I've reconfigured mythtv and recompiled it. My frontend is now giving me the XvMC-VLD option. I've now got both the XvMC option and the XvMC-VLD options selected, but unfortunaly it still doesn't seem to work. It now apears to give to me a blank screen and then the system is locked up. My frontend log now looks like this: 2005-06-09 23:39:24.961 Initializing audio parms from audio track #0. 2005-06-09 23:39:25.120 Read(): reqd=128000, rcvd=128000, rept=128000, error=0 2005-06-09 23:39:25.120 Estimated bitrate = 15320 2005-06-09 23:39:25.121 write->11 39 QUERY_RECORDER 1[]:[]GET_FRAMES_WRITTEN: 2005-06-09 23:39:25.122 write->12 53 QUERY_RECORDER 1[]:[]REQUEST_BLOCK_RI... 2005-06-09 23:39:25.135 Filling position map from 0 to 43 2005-06-09 23:39:25.135 write->11 51 QUERY_RECORDER 1[]:[]FILL_POSITION_MA... 2005-06-09 23:39:25.156 Position map filled from Encoder to: 35 2005-06-09 23:39:25.156 SyncPositionMap liveTV, from Encoder: 3 entries 2005-06-09 23:39:25.157 SyncPositionMap, new totframes: 35, new length: 1, posMap size: 3 Input #0, mpeg, from 'rbuf://192.168.2.3:6543/MediaServer/LiveTv/ringbuf1.nuv': Stream #0.0: Video: mpegvideo_xvmc_vld, 720x576, 25.00 fps, 15000 kb/s Stream #0.1: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, stereo, 256 kb/s Stream #0.2: Audio: mp2, 48000 Hz, mono, 64 kb/s 2005-06-09 23:39:25.163 Partial position map found 2005-06-09 23:39:25.164 Commercial Detection initialized: width = 720, height = 576, fps = 25, method = 1 2005-06-09 23:39:25.192 Using Sample Spacing of 6 horizontal & 6 vertical pixels. 2005-06-09 23:39:25.199 CommDetect::ClearAllMaps() 2005-06-09 23:39:25.269 Killing AudioOutputDSP 2005-06-09 23:39:25.271 Opening audio device '/dev/dsp'. 2005-06-09 23:39:25.271 Opening OSS audio device '/dev/dsp'. 2005-06-09 23:39:25.283 Audio fragment size: 4096 2005-06-09 23:39:25.286 Audio Stretch Factor: 1 2005-06-09 23:39:25.287 Ending reconfigure 2005-06-09 23:39:25.287 kickoffOutputAudioLoop: pid = 3405 2005-06-09 23:39:25.288 OutputAudioLoop: Play Event Using XvMC version: 1.0 2005-06-09 23:39:25.404 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 720, h 576, chroma 1, vld 1, idct 0, mpeg2, sub-width 0, sub-height 0, disp, p<= 64, 640 <=p, port, surfNum) 2005-06-09 23:39:25.404 Trying XvMC port 64 2005-06-09 23:39:25.406 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-06-09 23:39:25.484 Found a suitable XvMC surface 0 XvMC found and using VLD surface 2005-06-09 23:39:25.485 Using XV port 64 2005-06-09 23:39:25.486 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-06-09 23:39:25.556 Read(): reqd=128000, rcvd=128000, rept=128000, error=0 2005-06-09 23:39:25.557 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-06-09 23:39:25.564 Broadcasting free space avail > > Another, less likely possibility is that the video you are trying to > play can't be handled by the XvMC-VLD sub-system for some reason. > Say if you are trying to play an HDTV video. Not sure if I have HDTV - I think it may be. I'm in the UK and am trying to play back Live Digital TV from Freeview. Thanks for your previews comments. Have you got any more suggestions?

Re: [mythtv-users] Playback problem on M10k - Unable to create XvMCBlocks
Hi All, I have a similar problem on my EPIA M9000. I'm using MythTv 0.18 with a Nova-T USB2 DVB device. My log from the frontend looks like this: 2005-06-07 22:18:58.626 Broadcasting free space avail 2005-06-07 22:18:58.627 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 720, h 576, chroma 1, vld 0, idct 1, mpeg2, sub-width 0, sub-height 0, disp, p<= 64, 640 <=p, port, surfNum) 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 Trying XvMC port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 XvMCSurfaceTypes::find(w 720, h 576, chroma 1, vld 0, idct 0, mpeg2, sub-width 0, sub-height 0, disp, p<= 64, 640 <=p, port, surfNum) 2005-06-07 22:18:58.628 Trying XvMC port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.629 Found a suitable XvMC surface 0 XvMC found and using MC surface 2005-06-07 22:18:58.630 Using XV port 64 2005-06-07 22:18:58.630 Broadcasting free space avail Unable to create XvMC Blocks 2005-06-07 22:18:58.654 Broadcasting free space avail I'm sure that the Unichrome XvMC drivers are working correctly because using the MythDVD plugin I am able to watch DVD's using xine with -V XvMC perfectly. If I switch off the XvMC option in the MythTv frontend settings then as soon as I try and watch live tv the entire system looks-ups and I have to reboot. Anyone got any idea's?
