I haven't personnaly test it but here what i found on the net and papers - some say that you need a MPEG decompression card like the wired4DVD one. - Another said that ATI128 and Radeon's can handle MPEG decompression. - Better associated with a G3 or G4 upgrade, depends on what Mac you have. I personnaly want to upgrade my 6500 with that feature but still waiting to found a "cheap" refurbished Magma chassis (imagine that here in France it cost three times the price it is sold in USA, including VAT) :((((((((
