It's just what the title says. I can go into mythweb and record shows, but when I go to "watch tv" mythtv crashes. Same with watching recordings. I can watch them over my network with mplayer just fine, but not locally on mythtv. Let me know if you need the outputs of any files.

go to setup -> Setup -> TV settings -> Playback.
Click next all the way to the "Hardware Decoding Settings" page and uncheck "Use hardware XvMC MPEG Decoding".

This is an nvidia only functionality and not really working quite well.
