Also with VDPAU, but more importantly in the absence of it would any of these CPU be up to the task of processing: Athlon2 X3 450 3.2GHz and Pentium E6500 or E6700 3.0GHz.
Those CPUs are fast enough for H.264 decoding, but in the absence of VDPAU, realtime 1080i deinterlacing will be difficult. You'd probably have to use a simple bobber.
The only exception would be VC-1 material, which I don't have much of, but again I think other users can chime in there.
VC-1 decoding gets fully offloaded on feature set B (VP3) and C (VP4) cards such as GT 220 and 240, so it should work fine. On feature set A cards it's decoded partially by libavcodec that doesn't support interlaced VC-1 streams.
