I have not been following the developers list, so I have no idea what
mythtv-vid is.  Would anyone mind chiming with an prediction of what
type of GPU may be required for it?  Also, will this be optional, like
using the OpenGL painter is for right now?

I saw this for and got some information on it:

but I still am not clear on what exactly this will do and if this is
aimed for way down the road, or soon (meaning I would *potentially*
need to replace my 5200 card).
