I am in quite the same situation. I have an AMD 1700+, 1 gig ram, as TV-out. |

As a window manager I´m running xfce 4. It does not eat memory and it worked |
| 10 |
fine with both 256 and 512 meg ram. |

As player I´m useing kmplayer with support for both mplayer and xine so I can |
| 12 |
use both engines. Works perfect. |

Though I do not have any experience of MythTV, I´ve recon I don´t need it as |
| 14 |
my video card only have TV-out. The only problem I had was the infamous blue |
| 15 |
borders when playing movies in fullscreen, but putting this '/usr/bin/xvattr |
| 16 |
-a XV_COLORKEY -v 66048' in .xinitrc did the trick. First you must emerge |
| 17 |
xvattr. |
