[QUOTE="phertiker, post: 99657, member: 13471"] by itself the purevideo codec doesn't do anything for h.264 video. actually, i'm not sure it does anything for h/x.264 video at all, i think it's the video driver and the codecs in windvd or powerdvd, that sort of thing, that give you hardware acceleration of h.264. my personal favorite is [url=http://www.coreavc.com]CoreAVC[/url]. Efficient CPU usage for h/x.264 encoded video. It doesn't use hardware acceleration (yet) but i've found that it will actually have LOWER CPU usage than when using either Nvidia or ATI's hardware acceleration. it also beats the crap out of both VLC and ffdshow's h/x.264 decoders. unfortunately it's not free, but it's definitely worth it. I've posted links to CoreAVC twice today. I swear I don't work for them or anything, I just really dig their decoder! oh, and definitely ditch the klite pack. codec packs suck: too big of a chance for conflict or disaster. [/QUOTE]
