Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythtv

This bug began after updating to 10.10, a workaround if to change the viewing settings from CPU-- to anything that does not invoke XvMC. 

When changing to certain channels myth crashes with no error given and I was just logged out completely. Uninstalling proprietary nvidia drivers also stopped the problem but it returns upon reinstallation of the drivers.
