Of course, there is working and there is "working".
I am trying to tweak an Acer Aspire One as a combined FE/BE  with a
Hauppauge HVR-950 for over-the-air digital and HD.  HD files play fine
outside Myth, but the internal player sputters and goes out of sync.  I will
continue doing my homework and trying to make the most of the on-board Intel
graphics.  Once I think I have gotten things as good as I can, I would be
happy to add to the wiki.

I wonder, is there any standard way of testing a MythTV set-up to determine
how well it is working?  It would be great if there were some way at looking
at smoothness, sync., tearing, etc.
