Well I just had a try with the skip loop filter patch which helped a  
little bit.

Also tried running the system with a CPU disabled to see how it would  
affect performance and it made the HD channels unusable on an AMD 3600  
X2.

Going to try a rebuild with CODEC_FLAG2_FAST enabled in addition to  
the skiploopfilter.
