Good hint! From your perspective, is there anything on the horizon that is capable of doing this and save some energy? Would an Athlon64 X2 3800+ running with cool'n'quiet be a proper choice? This seems cheaper than a dual CPU mainboard...
The latest and greatest GPUs from nVidia have already some kind of acceleration for MPEG4 AVC, and hopefully they'll provide some driver support for Linux and *BSD as well.
Does anyone know the capabilities of the new VIA-cards, SP and DP with Unichrome Pro, when it comes to playing MPEG 2 & 4? I've never seen any information on what resolutions and bitrates they can handle.
