We now know you've got an 8800GTS 512 card. Which OS? Which media player are you using?

What nVidia has done is provide the PureVideo API to interface with vendors
like Cyberlink and Intervideo. You will need one of these apps, neither is cheap: PowerDVD Ultra http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/produ...n_112_ENU.html WinDVD Platinum http://www.intervideo.com/nVidia/Win...n1_landing.jsp I don't see what all the PureVideo hype is about. My system plays H.264 1280x720 30fps content with 18-20% CPU utilization, using CoreAVC, a software decoder. VC1 1920x1080 30fps content raises this to 30-35%. My CPU is a cheap Athlon X2 2.2 GHz. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means. It can therefore be said that politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

This is purely academic, though. MPEG2 DVD decoding was a difficult thing
back in the Pentium II-300 days. With modern CPUs, a software decoder keeps CPU utilization below 10%. The extra bloat incurred by WMP over, say, Media Player Classic, probably cancels out any benefits. -- "War is the continuation of politics by other means.

Besides, it is always good to have a hardware decoder, even though software can be updated, but how MPEG2 software have been updated?
