Hi

I have 0.22 installed on a gentoo box, and for some reason I have no 
keyboard input when playing a dvd.   Everything else seems to work fine 
(live tv, menu navigation, etc) its just mythvideo when playing a dvd.

I can't even esc out of it.  Basically the dvd menu comes up fine, 
presenting the play/setup/special features/scene selection etc, but I 
can't tell it to play with the arrow keys.  I have an ubuntu 9.10 box as 
well and it doesn't seem to have this issue.  I am using vdpau, but the 
problem is also present with CPU++.

I have to killall mythfrontend from an ssh from another machine to 
regain control of the system.

I haven't seen anything on the list about this so I am hoping someone 
can give me an idea as to where to look.

Thanks,

Rett Walters
