Comment (by markk):

 The problem is this line:-

 2010-12-01 02:04:33.050 VidOutVDPAU: Created VDPAU decoder (11 ref frames)

 The solution is to increase the number of VDPAU buffers by setting
 vdpaubuffersize=XX in the filters section of the video display profile
 page (you'll need to find what value for XX works for you). This is
 technically a bug in the MythTV VDPAU code that should be fixed for 0.25.

 Changing to a more recent GPU or updating your drivers may also fix the
 problem.

 If you're creating these MKV's yourself, you should definitely consider
 changing the settings. That clip will have issues with other hardware
 acceleration platforms - such as Apple's VDA - and 11 reference frames is
 entirely OTT.
