MythTV Unichrome Pro (CN400) Colour OSD [Solved]

Has anyone got the colour OSD working. The OSD colour goes to grey once TV is being displayed. There is a hack but I don't know if it is implemented in portage. Plus the device entry in the xorg.conf needs setting. I've had a stab at it but it doesn't seem to work.

If you've followed this: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/XvMC make sure your X colour depth is 24 or 32 bit as it doesn't work with 16 bit colour.

Cool! That worked. According to the docs I've been reading XvMC only works in 16 bit colour depth. This would appear not to be the case, however, I'm experiencing a little motion blur now, but I'll play a bit more with this later. I can now use BBC Interactive as the buttons now appear in colour.

Thanks for that.
