[QUOTE="callibso42, post: 239259, member: 64478"] Hi Micha, I found some time to dig a little bit deeper. This is just theory though, because I do not have a 1920x1080 LCD to test things out :( The data provide by AMD look quite promising: [url=http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_14603_14764,00.html]AMD 690 Series Specifications[/url] They claim to have mpeg2 decoding hardware acceleration and mpeg-4 decoding *support*, whatever that means. There is an interesting review about the AMD690/ATI Xpress 1250 here: [url=http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2099448,00.asp]MSI K9AGM2 AMD 690G Motherboard Review[/url] But the section about HDTV looks less promising: The article seems to be from early 2007. So AMD/ATI may have updated the drivers but it may be better to go for a full HDTV capable graphics card. [/QUOTE]
