ViaXvMCCreateSurface: Too many surfaces
!</blockquote>**************************<br>
There was (and it appears, still is) a problem with the openchrome driver
trying to create too many surfaces thereby over-writing the allocated
memory space.<br>
The answer if you are compiling mythtv from fixes or trunk is to reduce
the number of surfaces.<br><br>
Look for the following line and change:<br><br>
mythtv/libs/libmythtv/util-xvmc.h:56: max_num_xvmc_surfaces(16),<br>
to:<br>
mythtv/libs/libmythtv/util-xvmc.h:56: max_num_xvmc_surfaces(14),<br><br>
Another problem with the openchrome driver as it was 2 years ago (when I
stopped using a Via motherboard) was that the size of an XvMC frame was
limited to a PAL screen. I believe that this limit has since been
eradicated.<br><br>
Also good news, is that the Intel driver version 2.9.1 now available in
Fedora 12 and Ubuntu 9.10, now does XvMC again, not having done so since
version 2.5, and does so with full size frames.<br><br>

I just use the ATRPMS rpms. If it would not be too much of a problem,
could you post a bug for it to be changed. Hopefully Axel will pick it up
and it will stream to me in an rpm at some point. <br><br>
