Greetings.

I have the following HW/SW configuration and am trying to get MythTV to work with simple TV-out (composite), but there is quite a bit of stutter in the display. From reading the openchrome.org Configuration page, it states:
MythTV  -  Out of the box support. FIXME: Describe the mythtv conf to take advantage of XvMC VLD. 

Can someone enlighten me please?



Mobo: VIA EPIA EX10000EG
VGA:  Integrated VIA UniChrome Pro II 3D/2D AGP graphics with MPEG-2/MPEG-4 and WMV9 Accelerator
TV-out: VT1625M
Installed MythDora-12 (0.24.1)

xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "openchrome"
        Option      "ActiveDevice" "TV"
        Option      "TVType" "NTSC"
        Option      "TVOutput" "Composite"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Modes    "720x480Fit" "720x480Over"
        EndSubSection
EndSection
