I'm currently trying to setup my first MythTV box, and I've gotten to the point of being able to see live TV playback, but it's a little jerky and I'm seeing "prebuffering pause" messages from the front end.  My hardware is:

Via EPIA MII-6000
PVR-150
WD 120GB ATA HD

I plan to ultimately create a dedicated backend, but I wanted to see if this setup would work first.  Is this hardware capable of being a standalone unit?

I think I may have something miss configured in the frontend because the backend shows <4% CPU usage, and the frontend shows 65%.  I had some trouble configuring X, and I think that may be the problem.  I'm running in 800x600 mode, and I think I read somewhere that 720x480 is ideal for NTSC, but that mode doesn't work.  How do I tell if the hardware decoder is being used?

Any ideas about what the problem might be?
