[QUOTE="knutinh, post: 60082, member: 14776"] For most of us there are next to no true HD resources available. I know that the US people have some OTA HD, but here in europe you are limited to a handful of wmv-hd DVD movies, a sat. trial channel and a few other options. Things are getting there, however, we know very little about the distribution. It could well be that hollywood maximize their effort to refuse legal users to playback HD content on a computer, and that most tv brodcasts are linked to a decryption card "paired" with the detuner that they want you to use :-( Other than that, I think that may computers are more than fast enough to playback MPEG2 and even MPEG4 hd material without expensive hardware acceleration graphics cards. It is if you want to do hardcore scaling, deinerlacing etc that oureallywant a fast computer. regards knut [/QUOTE]
