You were getting that back on 7174?. I just tried out a Leadtek Winfast
A6200 THD (nice card, fanless, with component video out). I have only
tried the 7667 driver so far, but when I try to play something (mplayer
or myth) with the resolution set to 1080i X goes to near 100% CPU usage
and I can't use the keyboard. I found that if I change to 480p output
everything works fine. I can play DVDs or AVIs with mplayer with X
going to 100% usage. I was planning on trying other driver revs to see
if I could get it to work. Maybe someday...
