I did this and it my CPU utilization went down to about 40% on HD
streams. The video actually looks really great in high action.
Unfortunately, the sound has a break / hick-up / studder every 1.5 to
2 seconds. (When you're watching American Idol, this can be a bit
annoying.) The studder only occurs while XvMC is on. If I turn XvMC
off, the sound problem goes away but my CPU goes back up and action
has some problems.
Following the thread:

search_string=xvmc%20sound%20studder;#168490
I have tried turned on/off "Extra audio buffering" on the first page
of General playback options but that didn't make a difference.
Daniel, in the above mentioned thread, actually recommends not using
XvMC with HD streams. Is that the general consensus?
Does anyone else have a suggestion for me?
