What constitutes "decent hardware" on a myth system?  For some reason, after
upgrading to .21, my frontend can hardly display SD content (on an SD TV; @
1024x768; which was a mythbuntu default that worked beautifully on .20.2),
with a  P4, 1.7ghz processor, 128mb GeFrorce FX5200, and 1.25gb of ram.  It
gets extra slow when the OSD is used.

Also, (not to hijack the thread, but this seems somewhat related) does
anyone have a decent explanation of how to use the new screen to control
which render, deinterlacer, etc.?  Maybe I'm the only one that finds it less
than intuitive.
