Found it. Changed my xorg.conf 'module' section to:

Section "Module"
     Load  "vnc"
     Load  "glx"
     Load  "dbe"
     Load  "extmod"
     Load  "fbdevhw"
     Load  "freetype"
     Load  "v4l"
     Load  "dri"
EndSection

HD content now displays correctly with about 50% CPU usage instead of 100% on 
a Sempron LE-1250. And the frontend log shows:

2009-04-26 13:39:23.715 VideoOutputXv: XVideo Adaptor Name: 'ATI Radeon AVIVO 
Video'

I copied the module section from another working frontend. Does anyone know if 
I need all these modules?
