Compile from SVN source  as per my instructions, you may find you have to 
move the libXvMCW libraries to a temp directory to let the ./configure 
step work.  the option is --enable-xvmc I think, get the current option 
using ./configure --help when in the mythtv/mythv directory.

I finally got it working, saved 20% CPU, then gave it up as you can't run 
any sort of nice video filtering, only the BOB deinterlace filter works.

If you are DESPERATE for CPU capacity, and can't blow the $100 to $200 on 
a faster CPU, then I guess it is a good option.

Note for mplayer the XvMC option is NOT --xvmc it is --xxmc or something 
like that.  Mplayer is an easier test for XvMC than mythtv.
