>On OS X and with the ATI card unsupported at all, a G3 >400 can't do that.
"Well, the iBook 366 *CAN*. I did it myself 2 years ago. Some frames may have to be dropped, but there was no jerky movement and looked quite good. I was using Mplayer 2 beta4 at the time I think. Mplayer is *much* faster than VLC." I didn't check Mplayer, because 99% of the comments said "Non Working" (from Version Tracker). Anyway, I can't play QuickTime movies on Full Screen (with decent performance) and if you find an application wich has better performance, it doesn't say that Apple shuldn't support it's own hardware because one application works. The title refers to the DVD issue (and Apple didn't make ANYTHING to solve it). ATI made drivers for Windows XP wich supports the same card (you can download updates ! ! !). Their Service Support told me that is up to Apple to support that chip. Apple suggest to "switch from Millions to Thousands of Colors for better performance". __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
