With the latest Etch mythtv upgrade, I got no video and this error message:
NVP: Timed out waiting for free video buffers
Following the the web page below, I disabled the "Enable OpenGL vertical sync
for timing" under mythtv's playback option, which seems to have corrected the
problem. I have not tested it enough to be sure.

There are many anomalies with this "fix." The page is old and attributes the
problem to Nvidia graphics drivers, but I am using ATI. Another is that it
instructs you to also disable GLX in the X server.
I don't know if this is a real bug, much less how to report it. Thanks for any
replies.
