I have had it working on both but have switched to trunk because that was
where more effort seemed to be going when it came to HDHR support. I was
impressed with the response I got from SiliconDust when I reported the issue
I had with .21-fixes (
http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7402&sid=9212e6e2b2f5d7fce586f81bcc59c6b0).
They backported some fixes and for a while I was running off a patched
.21-fixes build but now I am just using the JYA trunk repo with no issues. I
did have some issues when I first set it up (as described in Steve's review)
but now that it is up and running, all good.

As for a using VDPAU, don't have HW capable of this yet but all of the
backend stuff is working fine, scheduling, recording, etc.

I run a separate backend, looking at using XBMC with MythTV plugins for NZ
Freeview playback (

but this is currently broken due to protocol changes in the MythTV trunk.
Thats what you get for being on the bleeding edge.
