I can't remeber exactly right now but I had a 1466 MHz Core Duo or something and it was more than capable of decodig 720p.

I think XV si a pretty good option. _______________________________________________ Frugalware-devel mailing list [email protected] http://frugalware.org/mailman/listinfo/frugalware-devel
