I could swear that when I tried this when I first got mythtv working a
few weeks ago, the audio would cut out when playing at any other speed
than 1x, but I just tried it again and it worked. A/V sync needs a little
tweaking, but otherwise pretty darn cool. Now I wish I had bought a more
powerful CPU to put in this box...

1.75x? Now *that's* making efficient use of your time... ;)
