[mythtv-users] HTPC based on MythTV

[Mark Hutchinson]

I am also seeing 150% load ( 2 core ) when watching HD on  
MythFrontend.  A bit less on SD, but still, mythfrontend maxing the CPU.
I am using NVidia 8600GT with latest ( 109 ) drivers from NVidia.

Anyone else seeing very high frontend load?
