poney up for a faster processor? I know its prbly not an optioin, but with a
3.0 or 3.2GHz cpu you'll be able to play back HD without XvMC.
Does OpenGL sync work with XvMC? I dunno, but might be worth a try. Also, try
disabling any deinterlacing? Oh, what about audio buffering options, have you
played with those?
Also, don't forget you have to restart mythfrontend everytime you make one of
these changes. minor bug...
