hi,
since I updated from vdr-1.7.11, there is some change in the way H.264
is treated:
With 1.7.11 + xine with vdpau support, I can watch H.264 "HDTV" shows
without problems. Occasionally, there is a small glitch.
But with 1.7.14 + the same version of xine, H.264 (both SDTV and HDTV)
fail. Syslog reports:

The picture has big distortions, and typically xine hangs at some point.
With traditional Mpeg-streams, there is no problem watching with 1.7.14.
yours,
Jouni
