Hi,
I want to make mythfrontend/diskless on old hardware
Whats the minimum cpu speed, ram for mythfrontend ?
Celeron 400, 700 Mhz , 64, 128 RAM , geforce mx4 ?
Any suggestion?
I've got fairly old hardware. 733mhz P3. PVR 350. Newest
ivtv drivers (0.3.8). 512M RAM. It works very well. I can
watch commercial DVDs with just 40% CPU utilization. Recording
something and watching a DVD at the same time is possible
with about 20% CPU idle.

I think you need at least a 700mhz to watch DVDs. If you
don't want to watch DVDs, then you could probably go a
bit lower. I think 400mhz might be the very lowest you
could go. All depends on the graphics card you use. I
think GeForce cards use a bit more CPU in general than
the PVR 350.
I have AMD Barton 2600+ / 1G /Geeforce 6600 / SkyStar2 (DVB-S) and this
machine would be mythbackend/fronted , NFS server
Mythbackend - HW cheap us possible only CPU,RAM,GFX,eth
I want to watch live (DVB-S), watch some divx, and maybe watch some DVD
(from mythbackend)
