Bug Description
When looking at the build log, you'll notice that certain configure options are not picked up by the MythTV configure script.
Relevant parts of the configure call:
CFLAGS="-g -O2 -fPIC -DPIC" ./configure --prefix=/usr -
--with-
--enable-
Now let's look at the output of configure:
XvMC support yes
XvMC VLD support no
XvMC pro support no
XvMC OpenGL sup. no
XvMC libs -lXvMCW
OpenGL video yes
Fribidi formatting no
As you can see, some XvMC options are not picked up properly. XvMC-OpenGL should probably stay disabled (remove --enable-
Regular OpenGL video is still somewhat experimental and can cause segfaults under certain conditions IIRC, but I'd suggest leaving it in because it's a nifty feature. According to Stanley Kamithi, it can cause problems with XvMC and DVD playback: http://
Not sure what to do about XvMC VLD/pro support. I think they was some discussion in #mythtv the other day (with Cardoe, the gentoo maintainer) so you probably want to check your channel logs for that.
Fribidi formatting is used to support RTL (right-to-left) languages. It'd be a good thing to have that.
fixed in bzr.
