Because the GF4 is a DirectX 8 part, and I guess MCE requires the fully programmable pixel pipelines DX9 provides.

Wait a minute... you're running MCE 2005 withe GF4 Ti4400?
Thought that wasn't possible (seeing as MCE 2005 uses VMR 9).

Wouldn't the minimum be a GeForce FX or 9x00 (x=5,6,7,8)?


It's a perfectly fine video card with onboard MPEG-2 processing.  More
than what SHOULD be needed for simply playing DVDs and video files.
Why wouldn't it be supported?
