OK, two builds later and I'm on 04a2952975b. mythcommflag --rebuild
still complains about vaapi, but it works, and I can cut recordings.
Panning is still shuddery, but I think less than it was, and isn't
distressing. My recent DVB-T2 recordings of BBC Proms have the channel
ident as 1080p and the content is interlaced; the change is handled
smoothly.
The menu/playback/playback_data display is showing ffmpeg decoding for
all H.264 and MPEG-2. I have 'NVDEC Normal' selected and it is shown as
being supported in the frontend startup and on this page (in the
'complete list' section, GeForce GT 710) so I'm not sure what to
believe. I'm not using AVSync2 because ISTR it used to have problems
with DVB-T Radio; I haven't investigated that recently.

Anyway it's looking good and I plan to live with it.
Cheers,
John
