[mythtvnz] Ubuntu 14.04 graphics acceleration

[worik]

Friends

I have two front ends running 14.04 (likewise the back end) and for some
reason I can no longer get graphics acceleration.

The one I am working on as I type (a shorage of ethernet cables means I
only work on one at a time) is an Acer and the graphics subsyetem...

~$ sudo lspci -vnn | grep -i VGA -A 12

I should be using one of the VDPAU "Video Playback Profile"s but none work.

I have vdpau-va-driver installed.

I am at a loss.
