[mythtv] hd-pvr and playback

[Steve Heistand]

The latest nvidia drivers (173.14.05) yes.

Its a combined FE/BE, but I have on occasion
tried to play files that were on an NFS mounted
filesystem. didnt seem to make a difference but will
make sure the HDPVR files are local.

Ive been playing around with some of the options
on the "use audio as timebase" page but I dont
remember if that is checked or not. will make sure
it is.

are you using the coreAVC codecs as was mentioned 
earlier? 

thanks
