Just occured to me that I'm using a Via Pro board (CN400 NOT a CLE266
chipset) so the ChromaKeyOSD colour changes don't work for me and
similarly, the fadeout doesn't complete - I wonder if there is a
connection here as it appears that people with the black/white OSD on XVMC
are hitting this problem but I gather that the ChromaKey fix makes it go
away...

Hmmmmm
