Hello,
I can understand the hardware limitation but i don't understand why it was working for years for me ( it's the same graphic card for me) and now it's not working any more !

Because the XBMC Code was changed. i don't understand why code with a regression gets merged.

I've added the 14.0a3.
Since 14.0 there is also a other issue with b-pyramid=strict option. This option is part of the BD compatibility profile for h264. This also happen with newer card so i don't suggest to use kodi 14 at all.

with this, DXVA2 is working again with older hardware but the b-pyramid=strict (the much much worse problem, because this affects newer hardware too and its part of BD compatibility) persist.

Martijn, the installer in your recent deleted thread is broken. He delete all files in the installation again if the folder is called XBMC

Use test version in portable mode.
If you wish, you may run XBMC in portable mode by adding the -p switch (in the Target field after the closing quotation mark) to the shortcut's properties used to launch XBMC. This will then use the XBMC folder itself as the Home folder, which means scripts, plugins, skins and userdata will be located in the 'portable_data' folder within the XBMC folder. This is useful for running XBMC for Windows off a USB stick for portability.
You'll have to put the XBMC folder in a place where standard users have write permission (e.g. not under Program Files) or run the shortcut as admin (even though you're logged in with an admin account). Otherwise you'll get the error message "ERROR: Unable to create application. Exiting."
You will, however, have to be careful when upgrading to make sure that the userdata folder you use is not overwritten.
