I have a VMware box which is pretty much a mirror or my backend,
without the capture cards of course.  I managed to run video fine on
it, but I was running over WiFi and it was jumpy.  I wasn't sure if
that was the WiFi to blame or the slow processing due to the
virtualisation.  I have never gotten around to plugging my network
cable in and trying again and since I installed Ubuntu on my backend,
I seem to use it most of the time as my main machine and haven't
booted up the Windows laptop.
