The only obvious thing that comes to mind is to check that any hard drives that are involved in streaming are actually using dma. I.E.
hdparm /dev/hda Beyond that, in no particular order... 1) Are you running a good video card driver? (Perhaps a binary driver from your hardware vendor?) 2) Is your kernel configured for preemption? Sometimes that can help, and occasionally, it can even hurt, but the second is mostly due to some other buggy driver. 3) There are options to use DRI(sp?) [Direct Rendering] and such for video cards. I've never been ambitious enough to get them working as I haven't had the need, but with hdtv you might have the need. I believe that also requires some kernel configuration. 4) Are program versions actually compiled with support for the P4? Things run a bit faster if programs use all the processors native instructions rather than say only those that would work on a generic 686. I tend to doubt this is the cause of your problem though.
