http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/mythtv/
this patch can be applied to the mplayer sources in the xbmc cvs with a little bit of tweaking. i have the updated mplayer.dll binary i made for my own use, which i'd be happy to distribute if someone wants to donate the server space that way, you could just drop the new mplayer.dll over the old one on your xbox. the binary is not compiled against any ms sdk's, and is all open source, so legal concerns shouldn't be an issue.

sometimes after watching livetv or a recorded show, i am unable to exit the menu. i have to force a reboot on the xbox.
also, i get wierd int[] errors sometimes while attempting to watch livetv.

if you are going to post a problem, it helps if you tell me which build of xbmc you are using (e.g. cvs checkout date), which version of xbmcmythtv, which myth tv backend version, and any steps you went through before hitting the problem. also, it is important to let me know if the problem occurs if you immediately run the xbmcmythtv scripts after a reboot or if you ran other stuff before you ran the xbmcmythtv scripts. i'm sure xbmc has other bugs out there that can cause small memory corruptions that don't result in an immediate crash. sometimes something that you ran before can impact stuff that you run much later...
philled: i use the stock mplayer.dll so i can't help you out there. that was one of the reasons i got a pvr-250 card because it encodes to mpeg2 in hardware and xbmc has no problem playing the files back.
luigi: henk says your guide problem is fixed with my latest patches in the xbmcmythtv cvs repository. try the latest code.
as for your skin problem, make sure you don't have any skin files from an older version of xbmcmythtv on your xbox. there used to be a full copy of skin files for each xbmc skin a while back. i then changed the skin files to allow you to include files within skin files. however, the skin module looks in the skin specific directory before it looks in the shared skin directory... so if you have old skin files, it will pick those up instead and the behavior is undefined (i.e. i haven't tested that in a long time now).
just out of curiosity, which xbmc skin are you using? the reason i ask is that i haven't tested the pm and pm2 skins in a while. also, it looks like they are being phased out of xbmc as well...
