Thanks for the reply.
My problem isn't the CPU load but the ugly video and the horizontal flickering.
Viewing terrestrial PAL 720x576 at higher resolution is very very very horrible.

How can I change output modes from TV Playback?
I can change only 1 output mode to use always.
I need to set output 720x576 for records (or liveTV) that are 720x576 and 1366x768 for records (or liveTV) that are HD.

This because when I'm watching analog TV i want 720x576 (native PAL resolution) and when I'm watching DVB-S HD I want 1366x768 (monitor native res).
Actually I have always 720x576 (also when I'm watching HD LiveTV) or always 1366x768 (also with PAL LiveTV)
