Well, I may also be wrong... I've successfully watched SVT HD (Swedish HDTV test channel, 20Mbit H.264) on my MythTV setup, which uses an Intel Core 2 Duo E6420. Some tearing occurs but playback is reasonably smooth at about 90-95% CPU utilization. Believe it - you're going to need at least an E6600 for completely smooth HDTV playback until someone either optimizes the MPEG4 codecs or we get GPU accelerated MPEG4 decode. /fnord _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
