Description
I have several xvid files that don't play correctly in myth (using internal player). They do, however, play fine with mplayer. The problem is difficult to describe. It's like a frame gets stuck on the screen and when there is movement, the pixels which are supposed to move in the frame do but they are still the color of the stuck frame. Eventually the frame will update and refresh but it gets stuck again shortly. That probably doesn't make much sense so I created these youtube videos to help with the description:

I have another machine that is using VDPAU and it doesn't have a problem with the playback of these same videos which is strange. It makes me think there is a hardware specific issue going on - but for whatever reason mplayer works fine with VDPAU on the problem system.

Apologies, I had missed the request for version info as well as logging info. I am currently using version v0.25pre-3767-gff6487b which I compiled from git head on November 19th. The log I just attatched was generated using "-v playback", please let me know if you need some other type of log. Reviewing the log, it doesn't appear that myth is aware of the playback problems. There are no messages that line up with playback issues. As I generated the log I played the sections of both videos that I posted in the original ticket. In fact, every time I play these "broken" videos the pixel pushing that occurs is exactly the same.

Just wanted to mention that this problem still persists on v0.26-rc2-34-g15a2839-dirty which I updated to on Sep 23 2012. I have upgraded most of the hardware on this machine since opening this ticket (early Aug 2012). Now running Ubuntu OS on an Intel server processor and using the same ZOTAC GT 430. No problems playing these files with mplayer nor vlc but myth internal player has issues (see the videos posted on original ticket).

This ticket is now extremely old, VDPAU support has been re-written and there have been many changes to decoding and playback, both in FFmpeg and MythTV.
I cannot reproduce this issue with any of the multiple test files that I use using master/v31- so I am assuming this is fixed.
If it is still a problem, please open a new ticket with a short sample.
What video card and driver revision are you using?
