I just wanted to concur that I see the same thing with these stats:

- version .18 (havent upgraded yet, planning on it this week)
- P4 2.8GHz HT backend w/ PVR500 for recording
- 2 P4 1.6 frontends both with nvidia and closed source drivers
- Seen it on both mpeg and transcoded files
- (need any other info?)
