I'm building another mythtv PVR box with the following specs and I'm having
problems with X. It is using 30% of my CPU to playback video, and that's not
right. Now I had the same setup on a 1.33 AMD thunderbird and it worked
perfectly.... I need help, any ideas? I think it is Xv or something doing
this, but it is compiled in with mythtv.

I'm playing back MPEG4 video from the backend, and even capturing straight
with live TV does the same thing. Any playback of video results in X CPU %
going through the roof. I'm using mythtv CVS current as of June 12th. I'm
also running Xorg, but I doubt that is it, it runs fine on my other box.
