Another data point for you: on my mac mini with its g...@1.25 MHz, the 480p is viewable and the CPU is at 60-70%. The 720p is viewable but it skips a lot, CPU is maxed out. 1080p is not viewable. This with xine and mplayer, both gave similar results. > The opportunity that I have is to purchase an iBook G4 800MHz.

My old iMac g...@400 MHz could play DVDs, but I believe it used MacOSX-only hardware acceleration to do the trick. The mac mini can play them perfectly on Debian with no drops whatsoever. In fact it makes a wonderful media center. Cheers, Alex. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
