[mythtvnz] HD Video jerky...

[Worik Stanton]

There does seem to be a consensus that my computer is too slow.  Ok.

Also someone mentioned that I could get an Nvidea card that would handle 
the decoding.

What is the best approach?  Getting a brand new box is too expensive for 
me right now so I would be buying an ex-lease or second hand.  How do I 
judge that a machine has sufficient resources?

If I go the video card route where is the best place to get info about 
how to use a card and with the plethora of busses how do I make sure I 
get one that will fit in my machine?

cheers
