I just built this system, everything is working bang on. The lcd on the case is good, and all my WMVs and MKVs play trouble free. I feel PQ is ok, but could be better. I was thinking of purchasing Nvidia 9600(or should I buy an ATI card?) to take advantage of the DXVA. I have read a lot of post so far on how to use the cyberlink drivers, but I am clueless. I was also wondering if DXVA was worth it, right now I am using the FFDSHOW filters and codec for my H264 and VC1 movies.
If I were to buy the card how exactly do I setup cyberlink codecs with mediaportal? How do I ensure my videos gets processed through the right codec that take advantage of the HW accelaeration? I have herd there are several filters(vob sub) that will turn the cyberlink hardware acceleration off. Anyhow any help would be greatly appreciated. I would love some input from the ppl using Hardware Acceleration to play back their H264. Also since most my files are X264 I am assuming they will be using the Hardware Acceleration.
Thanks.
