[QUOTE="globaldonkey, post: 321991, member: 49844"] [USER=75335]huckster2[/USER] Are you sure this is a h.264 problem? In AUS, all the DVB-T FTA channels (including HD) are broadcast using MPEG-2. I thought the HD channels would have been h.264, but they are not. I think only a few European channels, like BBC HD are actually using h.264 atm. I'm using a G35 chipset, per my specs, and have been interested in this thread because I've heard good things about the 780G. I use CoreAVC for h.264, and other than 30% CPU utilisation, don't have any problems playing 720p / 1080p movies. My main problem is with HD TV using MPEG-2 (PDVD8), where the motion looks like it has a bit of "Telecine judder", but TV server is telling me the signal is progressive, so it can't be de-interlacing that's the problem. Interestingly, the only solution that seems to do "full" HA of MPEG-2 is the G45 chipset or the ATI 4550 or higher, according to this site: [url=http://www.missingremote.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2564&Itemid=230&limit=1&limitstart=1]Missing Remote[/url] Maybe I'll wait to see if they build a chipset based on the 4550 or better. The Nvidia's seem to be behind ATI and Intel when it comes to HA at the moment. [/QUOTE]
