I have the same problem under Mandrake 8.2.

The lockup, or the error messages?

The 'codec not found' is because the settings.txt has changed, but wasn't
copied over to /usr/local/share/mythtv/, and I don't know what the lame error
is since I haven't seen it pasted yet.

Well I is kinda hard to get a error message to post
here when the machine locks up %100.

I retry the redhat system again monday. I will start
from a fresh install and load the CVS version.

BTW: This for this program. It really does look really
nice.
Thank you for the help.

Sorry. The lockup. Using pr4, gcc 2.96, xawtv works just fine.

Hum. This is what to check/try, in the order to try (basically, the
meaningful changes from pr3 to 0.4):

First check:
- that the AudioDevice setting is right.
- that the VideoDevice setting is right.

I doubt that those being wrong could lock the machine, though, but just wanted
to make absolutely sure.

Then try each of these, in order:

- comment out the break; at line 170 of XJ.cpp
- comment out the the 15 lines starting with line 186 of XJ.cpp (fo =
XvList... until the printf("Using xv port... )
- comment the entire while (frameheader.frametype != 'A' .....) clause (19
lines) starting at ~ line 230 of NuppelVideoPlayer.cpp

Might be a bit of a pain to test, if it's locking the machine, but that's
really the only way for me know which one of those changes is the culprit.
