dannyv45 Wrote:.MKV is a container. What codec is packaged in the container is what you want to know if it will play or not. Most .mkv are h.264 so the answer is it should play on the viewsonic.

COMPATIBILITY
Photo Formats JPG, JPEG, BMP, PHG, GIF photo format
Video Formats MPEG 1/2/4, DivX/Xvid, H.264, VC-1, WMV9, RM/RMVB & more
Audio Formats WMA, MP3, DTS, OGG, AAC, (2-channel), Real Audio

davilla Wrote:Not really, something has to unpack the video content from the container and present it to the proper codec. In the case of the vewsonic, while they might support the video content in the container, they might not support the container format.

The Crystal HD is a good example of this, it knows nothing about containers. So to support MKV files, we use ffmpeg to demux the video from the container, then present this bit-stream to the Crystal HD codec.

Also, whoever owns firesprinklershomesafe (or is at least mirroring their code dumps there), the scrolling text on the main page says "dummy". :p

WiteRabit Wrote:Heh. I wasn't trolling pastebin, just thought I'd do a decent google search to see if it was hiding somewhere in the wild.

suppose to be for the card ??

reaven Wrote:ok I was in the middle of selling my aTV and then I found this thread.

the reason for selling is how slow and sluggish Aeon and HD videos behave/play in aTV.

this card will resolve the problem with the decoding of HD media but the problems with skin doesn't have anything to do with upgrading to this card, right ?

Do I proceed with the selling or I keep it ?

Thanks

Instead of finding a thread you can try reading a thread too

And yes it will accelerate your video problems on the atv, and no it will not make it any better for you aeon skin.
do you proceed selling? are you asking that to yourself or to us?

ps. no drivers till mister and mister only says so. you know who mister is when you read 1 or 2 pages

reaven Wrote: Why you think am posting here ? because I read the thread, not the 56 pages but enough, do you think i was posting because I read the thread title only?

I never said those drivers are for mac os or any other OS I just found those drivers post it on ebay in the description.

Yes am asking you, why would I post a question to myself in a public forum

I just setup a Linksys WRT310N bridged to a Buffalo WHR-G300N both running DD-WRT. I'm getting sustained transfers around 50mbps range which is hopefully enough for 1080p. If not... I guess I'll be attempting to run a cable.
