The 9400M (the GPU on the ION) should run Freevo 2 well. Very theoretically, at least. :) I'm more concerned about the underpowered processor. > BTW, mminfo is unable to decode the video file (and mediainfo is able to > do that). Yeah, kaa.metadata doesn't support m2ts files yet. It's on my TODO list. I own a Hauppauge HDPVR which outputs in ts files, so I miss this support in kaa.metadata. > Unfortunately, it seems that vdpau is still a little young.

This probably won't be a problem in practice, because most HD content is h264, and MPEG2 isn't as cpu hungry anyway. > As far as I understand, in the current stage of mplayer/vdpau > integration, it seems that the vdpau option are to be activated for each > source or file (vdpau works also if I watch the HD-DVB directly). Is > that possible now in freevo ? And if yes, how ? I'll let Duncan comment about Freevo 1. Freevo 2 will support vdpau by turning on a vdpau option, and it will automatically pick the appropriate video decoder based on the file type.
