[mythtv-users] More PVR 350 & DVD player questions

Ok, I applied Matthias X patch to my myth system and its working like a
champ.  Now I'm trying to get mythDVD working properly but am running
into a few issues (I'm basically a vanilla FC1/Jarod's guide install. 
Running Athlon 2100 with 256MB RAM)

When I run XINE, everything works great, but when I exit XINE focus
never seems to return to Myth.  I've seen the archives on this being an
issue, but I haven't seen a solution that I can make heads or tails of. 
Most say "run a window manager".  With me running kdm, I thought I had
that covered.

So, I next tried to move to ogle.  Unfortunately it looks like IR and
ogle aren't working so well.

So now I'm trying to use MPlayer.  Does anyone have a command string to
use with MPlayer in order to get it to work with the X-Driver patch? 
I'm not able to get anything to display as of yet.

If anyone has this working well with any of these solutions I'm all
ears.  Wife is out of town and would love to have the DVD working before
she gets back.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Francis
