I have tried with XV enabled and disabled, it doesn't seem to make any difference. Over the last few days I have also been trying with a separate backend & frontend. When watching live or recorded tv via a remote frontend the backend usage stays down around 3-4%. the remote front end however is up around the 90% mark. So whatever I am messing up in the settings, I'm doing it repeatedly on different setups.
I'm just following the documentation on the MythTV website whilst compiling/installing MythTV, so not sure what I'm missing or doing wrong. Thanks, Jeff. >On Thu, 24 Mar 2005 21:43:29 -0500 Alexander Varakin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote. >Hmm, something is wrong with your setup. I am getting similar numbers on my P3 >677Mhz mythtv server.
