So, I started looking for other reasons. Whilst X + vdr are running, the Xorg process is taking 40% CPU, with vdr taking 25%. The 'system' CPU usage is 32%, with 16% for user processes. I thought maybe it was using X11 output rather than xv, and thus causing a drain on the system...
Have you checked that your display driver is OK? MTRR? Are you sure you use e.g. XV and not XShm?
Also, VDR taking 25% of resources looks pretty high. Can you check without plugins? (or is the 25% already including a software player?)
