[mythtvnz] Trying to get HD going on a Hauppauge PVR-1200

Hi All,

I have just installed this card and have the drivers installed ok, including
the firmware, but although the streams tuned in ok, I am having trouble
playing the streams in Mythtv. I managed to play a stream for a few seconds,
but then I get a segfault in mythfrontend. The error is below. It seems
there is an issue with h.264 decoding.

For graphics I am using an ASUS PQ5-EM motherboard with integrated g45
graphics. I am using a 2.6.17-7 kernel.

Can anyone suggest how to debug this? ... or is the h.264 support still
flakey for g45?

Thanks
