I have been considering that mythcommflag might be a good benchmark
to test systems.
We would put out a couple of standard videos, a few minute
I believe the way this should work would be to playback the video as
fast as possible. As soon as one frame is finished decoding, decode the
next one. Take a time for each frame and then make sure that no frame
takes longer than (1 / FPS) seconds to decode. If no frame takes longer
than that

Your problem is this:

Evidently the latest released driver (66.93) doesn't properly support
XVideo on the 6600's. Many complaints about this over at the
nvnews.net forum.

Brad,
My memory bandwidth is 779 MB/s (according to memtest). I have 512MB
of RAM, but this is probably pretty old memory (PC2100, I think).
Do you think this is the problem? Does anyone have any comparison
they can provide in terms of their performance with HDTV and an Athlon
XP 3200+ (or even

Ok, I just updated my CPU from an Athlon XP 2000+ to an 3200+ and have
some questions about performance with HDTV.
First, my mythtv specs:
Athlon XP 3200+ with 512Mb RAM, nVidia FX 6600, Nforce onboard LAN, SB
Audigy 2 sound card, HD-3000 and PVR-250. /proc/cpuinfo confirms the
3200+ setting and

Great list of questions. Hopefully we can get some answers to these,
and I"ll happily collate them into the master.

Blammo,
How about questions related to HDTV setup in mythtv?
- How are HDTV channels set up? Using zap2it and an HDTV lineup
resulted in a mix of NTSC and ATSC channels with incorrect freqid for
the digital channels (e.g., in Chicago, Channel 7 (ABC) is actually
broadcasting on 52). How is this
