Here is the logs from my run with gdb. Hopefully this is enough.

    From a quick look its crashing in an mmx based routine, so might be difficult, or there is an issue on your processor with those instructions. Did your build get mmx enabled?

    Also, the mingw build you used, is that a native windows one? (I compile with ubuntu)

    I looked to see if I could find the configure setting in mythbuild.sh and I couldn't see how ffmpeg gets built. I haven't had issues with previous versions of MythTV on Windows and Linux so I would hazard a guess and say I haven't had any issues with my processors (AMD Phenom II X6 1045T and Intel I5-3550). Both will crash in the same place.

    I'm using MinGW in Windows. I've tried to compile in Linux but I can't get QT to build because I've read WebKit(?) wants something that doesn't work when you cross-compile.

    if you've got the config.ep file (mythtv src folder) that would contain it and show all of what ended up enabled. config.log should contain just the configure command options.

    QT builds fine on linux, you may need to rename the folders for qt and mysql inside the mythpatches folder so they match the source folders, else they don't get patched!
    I had the opposite problem; I couldn't get QT to compile on windows; not enough virtual memory to link it. (and I think the toolchain I downloaded was a little wonky)

    You could try my version of the build script; note that you NEED to clone the repo or download the win32 folder from the branch. (patches are in git rather than downloaded separately)

    apologies for not getting into this - I only just upgraded my Myth install to 0.27!

    I dont get a crash (with he nommxext build), just a grey picture. Changine to DXVA decoding lets it work though!
    Go to setup > video > playback > on the profiles page add a new entry to normal, or edit your current one and choose dxva as the decoder.
