I see no mention on the mplayer mailing list about AMDXvBA. Are there actual users that can confirm that (insert codec X here) playback is indeed fully accelerated with these cards?

As faar, as I have understood it, full acceleration for H264/VC-1 is not working right now. Mplayer/Xine and/or ffmpeg needs to be rewritten to be able to use XvBA.
What is working is XvMC with XvBA. But you will only get MPEG2 acceleration with it.

Yes, at least Mandriva cooker release of fglrx suggest only for testing the XvMC with mpeg2.

I have not yet tried to update my machine to latest cooker to see whether it could work with 780G/HD3200.
