No luck. I tried setting both X and the GUI setup in myth to 800x600 and it's still slow playing HD. Not stuttering, just slower than real time. I didn't mention before, but I'm using pretty much a straight following of Jarod's guide with FC4, 2.6.14, on a P4 2.8. I'm so close to having beautiful HD playback, can anybody suggest things to try? _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
