Are you using xine's video output driver xxmc? I experience deadlocks with this driver on either nVidia or Via EPIA hardware. For example, when you replay a recording and press the pause button: the pause symbol (OSD) will never appear on screen, input_vdr's RPC thread blocks forever, vdr-xine waits for the RPC result while VDR is caught in cXineOsd::Flush(). I'm working on this issue but still do not have a complete solution to it: the deadlock is gone, but the OSD is still not shown on screen. Bye. -- Dipl.-Inform.
