For the past several years the benchmark for North American high<br>definition (1080i MPEG-2 content recorded via FireWire or OTA at<br>7.5-8GB/hour)-capable MythTV frontend has been a Pentium 4 2.8-3.0GHz<br>with an Nvidia 5200. Anything slower is asking for trouble.[1]<br>
Anything that meets this level of performance or better is in fine<br>shape.</blockquote></div><br>Am I missing something? I've been running 1080p HP playback with a 1.8Ghz CPU for over a year. I don't have to use use XvMC and I get perfectly smooth playback. Also I can use XvMC on my nvidia GPU and I don't have a black and white OSD during playback either.<br clear="all">
