Rob,

Do you get the same problems when running xine from the command line
(i.e. not from within MythTV)? If you do, I'd bet it's an NVidia video
driver issue, rather than a MythTV issue. Maybe your xorg.conf might
shed some light on the problem.

Also make sure the video card is being cooled sufficiently.
