What made it work was having /etc/X11/XvMCConfig contain the line:

Suddenly, everything worked. Not perfectly (There are some weird offsets
that I have not looked into), but it worked and was watchable. Which is
nice, as I only have a 1.1GHz Athlon.

Check your /etc/X11/XvMCConfig (or distribution equivalent).

Yup, already taken care of:

[Dylan at boron ~]$ cat /etc/X11/XvMCConfig
libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1

Thanks for the try though.

Cheers,
Dylan

got error messages somewhere (x.org log?)

[mythtv at myth1 ~]$ cat /etc/X11/XvMCConfig
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1

My XvMC seems to work well now (A64x2 4600, GF7600GS, nvidia 8774, FC5
2174smp) for 1080i via component-out.
