>
> Well - after upgrading my P3 500Mhz CPU to a P3 933Mhz the stutter is
better while playing live NTSC TV - but it's still there during live-tv.  I
have to hit "p" (pause) and then un-pause it to remove all stutter.
>
> What is the min footprint for a MythTV frontend????  My other myth box is
a front/backend combo with a PVR-250 and a pcHDTV card and I don't seem to
have a stutter problem with it (P4 2.6G HT CPU).

> - I've re-niced the mythtv process and the X process like others have done
> - I've checked with TOP and it's not a memory issue (running 256M and not
using SWAP at all)
> - I've compiled with -march=pentium3

> Have I missed anything?  Is a P3 just not capabile of being a frontend?
