But none of them helps when running mythtv. They do seem to change the error messages, and some of them bring back the X crashing behavior, but none of them produced a tv picture under mythtv. So I'm suspecting that whatever mythtv does before passing the output of the tv card to mplayer is the culprit. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad-O0WJhd4tT3hg9hUCZPvPmw at public.gmane.org , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
