Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mythtv-frontend
Hi all -- Major problem over here with mtythv (specifically, I think,
mythfrontend).
On Friday, I rebooted after 8 days of uptime (I just love testing new
releases, don't you?), and found that mythtv would not play back video
any longer -- it completely takes down X, too, returning me to the
Ubuntu login screen. This includes live video off my Hauppauge PVR-350,
or recordings from the database.
Mythbackend and the tuner card are working fine-and-dandy: I'm still
automatically recording new shows, can interface with the backend thru
mythweb, and can even play back those shows in VLC without a hitch.
Earlier, enabling any of the Compiz Fusion effects caused a crash on
mythtv *load*, but I disabled that and mythtv worked fine.
Relevant hardware specs:
-PVR-350
-P4 / 2.8GHz
-GeForce 6800 (I think is the number) graphics card.
Changing, e.g., deinterlacing off, disabling XvMC, disabling the Open GL
timing option, etc., have had no effect.
This almost sounds like a graphics card issue to me, but I can't get any
other program to cause the same symptoms, hence why I'm filing this as a
mythtv-frontend issue.
Please contact me for anything w/r/t assistance with this issue. I'll
be happy to help!
