Hi Paul.
I guess the GPU could do the decoding IF the codec supports that and there is support in the drivers for that IGP. My mobo has ATI X1250 IGP but I've not got the HW acc to work for this. I bought an Nvidia 8600GT 512MB Silent gfx card which can do HW acc.
As for the decoding of h264, yes as far as I know the stream is sent "raw" to the client, which will decode and display. All recordings are stored in the original format. TV-server has no options to select codecs, that is in MP only.
