As we are waiting now for a really long time for AMD to fix the three things still missing for a perfect htpc experience:
- H264 Level 5.1 Support
- Mpeg2 bitstream decoding support
- Advanced Deinterlacing Support
I have opened a bugreport at the catalyst bugtracker:
http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448
If you can, just give your 5 cents, provide screenshots which show the garbage in case of Level 5.1. Or which show red or purple lines at the bottom / top cause of bad deinterlacing.
You can also provide Screenshots with "o" pressed which show huge cpu usage when decoding Mpeg-2 1080p/i content.
I want AMD to see that there is a community which waits for more support by AMD. That is the reason why i do not provide these files just "alone". They shall see that a lot of people are affected by their linux driver and xvba policy.
Important: Please be polite, not shitstorm. End of March there is coming out a new Fusion APU, pretty worth buying it, if the support would be a bit better.
Important 2: Do not discuss other bugs concerning xvba implementation in this bugtracker, as AMD would easily say: you did it wrong and close this report.
