Hi all
I have a GT640 nVidia card installed in a Core2Duo build from a few years ago. Am I right in assuming that 4:2:2 decoding isn't supported in VDPAU? When I play 4:2:0 stuff I get smooth playback and it appears to be using a VDPAU decoder, however 4:2:2 (quite high bitrate stuff) stutters badly, and appears not to be using a VDPAU decoder and so my C2D runs out of steam.
Wanted to check this was the case - have tried OpenElec and XBMCBuntu current releases.
If that is the case - does anyone have a suggested minimum Sandy/IvyBridge processor that would support 4:2:2 H264 content at around 38Mbs?
