[mythtv-users] Slight jerkiness in live TV, recordings

I just upgraded my Myth box. Mythdora 4 on an Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU
2.40GHz with MemTotal: 1032968 kB.

The box has one PVR 250 and two PVR 150s. The cable goes through a single
gold-plated, high quality video splitter (one lead to the TV). The signal
is clear on all inputs.

The problem is a slight jerkiness in video and sound through Myth live TV
and also on playback. It's almost like frames are dropped.

It's difficult to swear to it, but the PVR 250 *may* be the worse offender
... but if so, not by much. The problem seems equal on all channels.

So what's next? Are there machine optimizations?
