I am.  I had posted earlier about issues that I was having with choppy audio.  
After some further review it appears that i'm experiencing the same thing you 
are.  I only get choppy audio/video on dark scenes.  Basically, the more 
black in the video the worse things get.  

I also use a PVR 250, but i am using a p4 2.4GHz with 512MB of RAM.  The 
system does not appear busy when this happens, but maybe i'm just not looking 
in the right places.

for more details on my hardware.

Anyone have any ideas?
