[mythtv-users] Dual processors -- better than single fast processor?

[Jonathan Wiebe]

I'm curious what are your experiences?

>From the documentation I've read a single PIII 1Ghz processor is able to
encode mpeg4 and allow tv watching (live tv - encoding and decoding,
with no encoding done in hardware).  If for example I wanted to build a
backend server is it better to look at a dual PIII 1Ghz motherboard or a
single processor board with a higher powered processor, say 2.6GHz?

How mutltithread friendly is MythTv?
