Mark, I may have been too hasty. Couldn't fully test last night since my wife is a Survivor freak and had to watch. The little testing I did the picture quality is as close as I think I can get it. However now this morning I have had 2 hard lockups, can ping the box but that's all. I'll keep you posted.

I'll have to try recompiling tonight... did you
alter any other settings.pro options? (besides XvMC?).
Just so I'm clear, in the end you ended up keeping MythTV set to use XvMC?
And, you're settings.pro had:
XvMC on, OpenGL on.
Thanks! Looking forward to giving this a try!

I've been messing with this most of the day,benefit of being a stay at home
dad, and I think I have mine figured out. I turnedoff xvmc in MythFrontend
Setup and in my xorg.conf, this caused the agreater load on the CPU but the
picture in Myth is the same as straight fromDirecTV. I think the reason
that DVD playback looked so good while TV lookeduncrisp is that the default
playback command has mplayer use -vo xv instead of-vo xvmc.
But I need xvmc, I don't think my athlon XP 2700+can handle HDTV without it.
So I followed this threadhttp://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/116194
all except the modeline, recompiled mythtv withOpenGL, and added Option
"XvMCUsesTextures" "True" to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf. This seems to give me a
picture that is the same as directv and watchinglive tv puts the cpu at 86%
idle using encoder 1 which is the freestyle card.some more since my AA 9A60
Of course I'm going to have to dick around with it
should be here this week but now it seems that allis good.

1. try a different decoder card (my M-179 had poor
quality compared to my pvr-250) ----Have one on

2. upgrade/downgrade your video driver and hack on
andconfig files to optimize for the best resolution
