they used the real cpu/gpu in the giga too. if the price is around $350-$500, it will be a great box.

hey, how is san jose these days? i used to work there 13yrs ago.

  • Vista : There is macroblocking with DXvA2 enabled (didn't test without).
  • Linux : There is no macroblocking with VDPAU enabled. It is pretty smooth.

So, definitely a DXVA2 and Windows Nvidia drivers problem
