there is 8400 GS with old chip (gainward for exemple).
They have 1 version with PCI Express 1 & an other with PCI Express 2 under the same reference.
So, depending of the constructor, GS can't garantee that there is a G98.

it uses the exactly same hw as dxva under windows, and thus has the same limitations.

Actually h264 L5.1 dxva was enabled in a recent windows beta driver.
However there are still some limitations with reference frames i.e 1080p can have no more than 11

motd2k uses 16 max reference frames. An improvement could be to check how much actually is needed and adapt the maximum value. I think this would lower the memory requirements (to be safe now, you need 512M)

It will attempt to decode 5.1 from what I've read. If you could point me at some source material I can do my best to see it works.

Is this working good and is stable already?
Only way I can get a smooth 720p playback on my atom 330 motherboard is using ffmpeg-mt patch. But that is very unstable, so I'm thinking about buying a Nvidia 8400 for this instead.

And with regards to stability, is that a serious question? Have you read the thread at all?
You'll see that motd2k only recently started on it and is only in its own branch at this time.
