Hm, really?
I've got a Pundit system with 2.2 GHz Celeron with a PVR-250 recording in
full resolution (720x480).
It seems to work fine, but while watching live TV my CPU usage is around 65%
X is using about 35% CPU
mythfrontend is about 30% CPU
If it's really supposed to be much lower than that, where would I begin to
track down the problem?
Playing one of my recordings with mplayer using the "-vo xv" option gives:
mplayer - 18% CPU
X - 16% CPU
Jitter reduction and deinterlace options are enabled for playback.
My onboard video RAM (shared) is set for 8MB.
I'm using the winischhofer drivers for my onboard SiS graphics.
Thanks!
