[mythtv-users] Audio+video stutter after upgrade to Fedora 10+NVidia 180 on FX6200

[Niels Dybdahl]

I forgot to mention that most other problems I have found regarding
stuttering is on playing HD with XvMC.
I am trying to play SD with Xv.
My CPU is a 1.8 GHz Athlon and before the update the CPU was at 30-40%, now
it is 80-100% when playing.
