</div>Your two files are remarkably similar in settings -- the same bitrate (both by<br>
ID_VIDEO_BITRATE and by computation of size / ID_LENGTH), the same<br>
resolution, the same FPS, etc. In fact, they're similar enough that I suggest<br>
you double-check that they're actually recorded from two different devices<br>
(your HDR-1250 and your PVR-250).<br>
<br>
If in fact they ARE recorded from two different devices, and yet one plays<br>
back OK and the other doesn't, I'm pretty much at a loss. They're similar<br>
enough in overall format that I don't know why one would do better than<br>
another -- but that's a reflection of my modest knowledge of video formats; I<br>
don't mean to imply that you're imagining things!<br>

<br>
</div>XvMC support requires both support in MythTV and support in your drivers, so<br>
even if you select XvMC in the front-end, it might not be used.<br>

</div>Start with none. That's the least CPU-intensive option, but it may produce<br>
ugly streaks in video that features fast motion or panning. Use this option<br>
to test the video playback quality with a recording with known problems. If<br>
it's OK (aside from streaking, if this artifact appears), then try other<br>
options. I personally prefer kerndeint (kernel de-interlacing), but it might<br>
not work for you -- you'll just have to try each one in turn and test it on<br>
your hardware. Take notes on each -- both the quality of the de-interlacing<br>
and on how much stuttering you see, since that's the problem you're trying to<br>
solve. Try to find a recording with lots of fast horizontal motion or panning<br>
to test the de-interlacing, and play the same video segment for each<br>
de-interlacing setting.<br>
