I also thought a P4 3GHZ would be fast enough.<br>
There is some background info below but rather than XvMC, try running the Libmpeg2 decoder with no deinterlacing at a reduced resolution (see Appearance settings about running specific video at different resolutions or just reconfigure whole system for lower res). I found that with the exception of XvMC this was the best option for displaying HDTV on my 1080p display using a 3GHz frontend (with only a 64MB nVidia!). You might have to turn off XvMC in XvMCConfig to allow this to work.</blockquote>
<div><br>I have messed with this but without XvMC HD studder very BADLY. I will check to see if it can play in Xine as I have read that the .21 player hogs the CPU. This is very frustrating!<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

If that works you can try adding "one field" deinterlacing and see if you get stutter. Just try slowly turning everything up until you get problems and then back it off (tighten it until it strips and then back it off half a turn ;-) )<br>
Good luck,<br>

PS: Are you running MythTV 0.21? I was running a 2.67GHz Frontend that was working "just" fine under 0.20 with the exception of a minor stutter on some HD video. I upgraded both the CPU (to 3GHz) and MythTV to 0.21 and had no end of trouble getting reliable video.</blockquote>
<div><br>Yes running .21 from ATrpms. Fedora 8 <br></div><br><br>Mitchell<br></div><br>
