It looks promising, I'm myself looking for H.264 HDTV decoding capable micro-ATX motherboard and wondering if there are alternatives for Nvidia's working but closed binary stuff where e.g. HDMI audio support won't be available in Linux according to nvidia's comments in their forum. Do the current x.org development drivers for AMD GPUs provide smooth SDTV and HDTV playback into DVI/HDMI with xine based software decoding with a powerful enough CPU (e.g. 45W rated Athlon 64 X2 4850E)?

I know, I'm already running vdr on it. So far, it only works with AMD's Catalyst driver, but 780G is up next for the radeonhd project. It's gong to be very interesting to see how far they can push the performace on it. And it's nice to see AMD helping the open-source community by providing alsa drivers themselves. So now I have working HDMI audio as well. /Magnus
Great!
several questions. Which CPU and TV do you have ? Which CPU's load do you have ? What's name you motherboard ? How much RAM do you have ? Are you watching the hdtv dvb-s2 channels by hdmi video-output, what about playing of hdtv files ?
