I have just submitted a patch for the YUV playback
code which significantly reduces the cpu used during playback using the Xv
code.
Now the CPU usage for X has dropped from about 30-35%
to about 0.5 2%. So I can now play back stuff with mplayer burning
~13%cpu and I have between 80 85%
Hey John,
it still works :-)
When playing back a recorded mpg over Xv, I get +- 20% usage for
mythfrontend, and 7% usage for X. This is on an athlon 2000xp.
I've just started playback of a multihour recording. Untill now a/v sync
usually drifts off so that I had to rewind every 10 minutes

Checked the playback after an hour. Normally a/v would have drifted

I can confirm this works really nice. Last week has been very good. I
started with 60-70% CPU usage for Xorg with CPU running at 2GHz. Now CPU
usage has dropped to 1% for Xorg and the CPU is only running at 800MHz
(powernow)! Very nice

I can solve this by doing some mplayer magic and use this command to play

mplayer -vo xv -vf scale=660:-3,expand=760:576:64:50
Unfortunately when I do that, I have
