25Mb/s DV data takes a rather enormous amount of cpu power to play

1.7GHz and it can't quite keep up).

It's not my experience. I think much depends on the source
of the data but I know that capturing from anything other than a
digital source (miniDV or Digital8 camcorder) requires the use, less
aggressively perhaps, of yuvdenoise. For DV sources the use of -N
to mpeg2enc is usually sufficient, if not then yuvdenoise -l 1 perhaps.
Actually what I am finding out over the past couple days is that
the medianfilter (yuvmedianfilter) on some material (captured laserdisc)
does wonders. I am fairly sure that the way to make the medianfilter
milder or less aggressive is to raise the threshold from the default
of 2 to something like 6.
It'd be nice to have a variable/selectable "blur" capability so that
only sections that need the softening get it and not the entire movie.
Probably a SMOP (Simple Matter of Programming) once a supplier of
copious free time is found ;)

Agreed!
Now if I could only get rid of the occasional "Reset" that the
IEEE1394 subsystem spits out once in a while. Doesn't happen often
but when it does the capture never recovers 'sync'.
