Description
When watching the DVD Warner Brother's movie 'Matchstick Man', vdpau rendering fails and then displays an a/v sync error on screen. Myth plays fine using vdpau when watching regular recordings.
The situation is very similar to this thread posted on nvnews:

This patch ignores errors returned by vdp_decoder_render as suggested by a NVIDIA guy. The error message is still produced, but the error count will not decrease. This fixed my problem with playing a DVD where the "slice" value is too high. The trunk version already ignores the return code from this function.

Are there any plans to accept the attached patch or do you need more informations?

Replying to david.engraf@…:

At this stage I'm not planning on any more backports to 0.22-fixes. With a fair wind 0.23 won't be long now.
As you say, this is not needed in trunk (which obviously will become 0.23) and the latest beta driver (195.36.03) has increased the number of allowed slices internally (although actually exporting/publishing how many that is would be helpful, as would a more descriptive/unique VDPAU error).
