I don't insist the nvidia dvd decoder software should be included in the package, I insist the advertised function works without the need of a seperate software pack that end users are required to purchase. You sir are being an arse Oh really? The software came with my 6800 GT. RaceFace says the software came with his card too. Do you even have a qualified card? Did you bother to look on the CD that came with the card? |

They say that WMV acceleration works on the 6600 with a new driver and the DVD decoder. Full stop. Notice the total lack of comment about WMV acceleration on the 6800? I rest my case. Chip |

something still lacking by not having the acceleration? There are reports that even high end systems have trouble decoding 1080i encoded WMVs. But even with a fast CPU, we have a case of a company advertising features it either knew were broken or that it hadn't properly tested. |

You can't, for instance, play the new WMV HD stuff without hardware decoding. If you try it in software, it stutters like crazy. Even on my P4 3.06HT chip. |
