Well, under kernel 2.6.2 with vdr-1.2.6 (vanilla), streamdev-0.3.1 and
patch04 for softdevice I made:

Maybe the message regarding COLORKEY can be useful (remember that with
patch02 OSD worked).
The _window_ has wrong width but video is perfectly scaled, i mean that
there are black bands on left and right.
Tell me how can i help with further debugging (maybe under kernel 2.4
??)

Please concentrate on video for now.
Maybe saing "choppy" is not exact, a better english word for
describing the situation is "unclean" sound, but it can depend on my
soundcard driver, so do not focus on that issue for now :)
