Hi, I'm sending files requested to give proper help. Like I said it seems like Xv is not working (I get lower cpu if I set -vo x11 in mplayer). I suspect that software scaling is going on, but don't know what to do to correct this ( I get CPU for X 40-50% and for mplayer or mythtv frontend about 20%). I have Asus pundit, with P4 2.4 G. I'll appreciate any help, since this is the only major problem left... I have: uname -a -> Linux pundit 2.4.21-144-default #1 Fri Nov 14 00:01:36 UTC 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux cat /proc/mtrr > reg00: base=0x00000000 ( 0MB), size= 512MB: write-back, count=1 reg01: base=0x1c000000 ( 448MB), size= 64MB: uncachable, count=1 reg02: base=0xdc000000 (3520MB), size= 64MB: write-combining, count=1 reg03: base=0xe8000000 (3712MB), size= 32MB: write-combining, count=1 reg04: base=0xe1400000 (3604MB), size= 4MB: write-combining, count=1 I'm attaching xfree log as suggested. I'm using Suse 9.0 pro and xfree is something like 4.3.0-29 version (stock provided with Suse, but did upgrade and downgrade again cause of same problems - but know it doesn't work also in stock version of xfree...)
