Currently I use TIghtVNC to control my HTPC over the LAN. Works great,
except that it seems to have a pretty high CPU usage, like 30-40%.
This is fairly detrimental to a machine playing back Hi-Def xvid or
DVDs.  Is this a common problem with VNC?  Is there some setting that
I am missing?

I use [EMAIL PROTECTED] to do the same thing & yes the cpu usage is high. I use mine to start the various videos then I shut [EMAIL PROTECTED] down so it's not really an issue plus the MyHD card that I use handles all the video to the wide screen tv so the computer isn't doing all that much.

Has anyone tried the Remote Desktop built into Windows XP? Does it
have the same CPU issues?

I'm not much help here. I had security issues with Remote Desktop early on & haven't used it since. I have heard that the particular issue I was having has been fixed but I'm happy with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
