Hi ! I have a serious problem ! hehe.
Ok, I'm using Freevo in my HTPC. Gentoo minimal setup. And the problem
is that the CPU is an AMD 2000+ @ 1666MHZ, maybe so big for DVD or so
little for HDTV.
So, I'm trying to play HDTV content, x264, 720p. I open X ( startx ),
and then i type ( nice -+15 mplayer $video -fs ). And work fine. It is
strange, (-+15) yes, if I put a number below -1, the image moves slow,
because X need some CPU too (it has nice -1). Anyway, now it works. but
when I open Freevo, python consumes with no use around 12%, it is bad
because before I get that AMD2000+ I was using an AMD1700+ and it
didin't play smoothly those HDTV videos. I can't let python use that
12%. Then I open freevo -fs with nice -+19 and change mplayer niceness
to 0, but still have problems. Any idea? like a subcommand that make a
CTRL + Z to "freevo" to stop working while playing video?

mplayer nice = 0
freevo/python = 19
X = -1


WARF!! Maybe an AMD2500+ BARTON could be the best option but I don't
want to buy a new CPU and I think that i won't find that in shops now.
