(I'll reply to this one too, as it seems Tino and I have very similar
setups).

Same here, only bob gets me a smooth playback, the others all look to
jerky.

Same here, 2GHz Core Duo so plenty of horse power. It does HDTV playback
with 3/4ths of the system twiddling its thumbs.

Same here, but my modeline was tweaked to:
Modeline "1280x720-50" 74.5 1280 1692 1736 1980 720 731 736 750
+hsync +vsync.
That should give me just a smidgen above 50.0Hz.

Mine is an LCD TV, so the same as well.
