not sure about this. Intel series i9xx graphics is able to scale by hardware even in interlaced mode. I use this feature for my intel based frame rate control patches (SCART/RGB/PAL vga-sync-fields patch).
VDPAU is currently only on NVidia cards although it's possible Intel and
right. But I thought that NVidia could eventually provide the same scale-interlaced-picture hardware feature as Intel does.
even ATI may provide backends for it in the future. I think only the most recent Intel chipsets support H.264 decoding, does your patch work with those? Once there's a stable API for their H.264 decoding I guess
the patch works with older (pre-avivo) Radeons and recent i9xx Intel chipsets. Currently I only support antiquated RGB/SCART:-)
Though 'durchflieger' of vdr-portal.de also supports H.264 compatible video modes with his own patches.
we'll have the best of both worlds :-).
right! It's nice to see how HDTV finally finds its way to Linux without expensive extension cards.
