Hi. My opinion is that nvidia's ION platform with vdpau and XBMC gives the best result. The atom's cpu load is <10% playing 1080p h264 so forget the 3GHz core2 unless you want to play Flash HD movies or other non-vdpau formats. It's not very cheap yet but you can build a fanless one for €200. For example a http://www.cartft.com/catalog/il/1072 together with 2G ram and a pico-psu. /Magnus H _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
