<div>Thanks for the info, sounds like the info I gathered. The openchrome project has the XvMC driver, so I will be trying that. How was the CPU usage when using XvMC, I am hoping that it is relatively low. </div>
<div>I am not doing HD, that will be a whole other project, need to tackle this one first.</div>

</a><br>><br><br>I used a similar setup in the past, and then I<br>relegated my MII 10000 to a file server when I was<br>dissatisfied with it. My dissatisfaction wasn't over<br>how well the Epia functioned for MythTV (it worked
<br>fairly well for that), it was because I couldn't play<br>my favorite MAME games on it.<br><br>You pretty much will have to use XvMC (I was able to<br>barely play back SD video without it, using 90% of the<br>CPU with the occasional stutter). I haven't kept up
<br>on the various Unichrome projects, but you want the<br>one with XvMC (as I believe that one of them took it<br>out). For HD (you didn't say), forget it, it won't<br>happen, XvMC or not.<br><br>Keep in mind that I did this around the time of MythTV
<br>0.17, so things may have changed since then.<br><br>-- Joe<br><br>__________________________________________________<br>Do You Yahoo!?<br>Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around<br><a href="http://mail.yahoo.com">
