[mythtv-users] Hardware for HD Playback

[Chris Tepe]

With the change from Zap2it to SD probably requiring an upgrade I'm 
thinking of upgrading my hardware as well to support HD recording and 
play back.  I'm looking for some recommendations  as to MB, CPU, Memory 
and Video Card.  I will eventually have 1 master backend/frontend and 2+ 
frontends.  I've looked at the hardware databases on the web but none 
really address the HD issue clearly.  My current systems are a couple of 
atholon 2300+ w/ nVidia gforce cards  and a HD Home run .  my playback 
was very choppy.
