I´ve taken an old PC (Intel graphics card on board, P4@553Mhz, 512Megs of RAM) and installed mms, vdr and lirc basically.
Everthing works fine but I see cpu utilization in the region of 90%

Any tips on how I could speed things up? Xine settings? Xorg settings? vdr settings? xv or opengl?
Try to verify if colour conversion is actually done by the hardware graphics card (through Xv), and not in software. Running on a 533MHz processor could be stretching things though, especially for a P4.
