This is due to my 5200 fx being taxed and the CPU running mythfrontend at 100%.

I think I have now figured out what is going on here, based on
differences between console output from using versions 169.07 and
100.14.19: XvMC is no longer working which is pegging my CPU.

I get these lines indicating that issue:
2007-12-26 19:13:00.730 VideoOutputXv: XvMCTex: Init failed
2007-12-26 19:13:00.731 VideoOutputXv: XvMC Adaptor Name: 'NV17 Video Texture'
X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8
  Major opcode:  141
  Minor opcode:  14
  Resource id:  0x15b


I have these files also:
[root at localhost ~]# more /etc/X11/XvMCConfig
libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1
[root at localhost ~]# locate libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1
/usr/lib/nvidia-graphics-100.14.19/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1
/usr/lib/nvidia-graphics-169.07/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1

Is it somehow getting chocked up and linking to the wrong library?
Things work fine when I downgrade to 100.14.19.

Thanks
