I agree, I use DVBViewer in XP Sp3, overlay renderer with ReClock and DXVA with Cyberlink Decoders (both MPEG and H264), so it definitely does work.

thats where i came up with my idea of dxva wont work with reclock because when your installing it and you already have reclock they tell you its not working. But it might be just my mistake

It wont take long to make a simple program for configuring the xml with vb.net directshow.net is kinda easy to use

Sorry for interrupting here, but how do I get this build exactly to work? I installed it, but I don't really see a difference in the playback of my FullHD-videos. Somebody on here says something about a advancedsettings.xml which just does not exist, neither in Program Files nor in Roaming. Would it even help on my EEEBox (Atom N330, ION). Probably I'm just too inexperienced, but would be glad of any help.

You have to create the advancedsettings.xml (see wiki).
Yes, ION is capable of DXVA.

This works out of the box for me (9400GT) it just doesn't play mkv's with subs in it.

While playing a HD (.mkv) file press "O" and see the CPU usage and don't forget you gotta select "play with..." and then "DSPLAYER", otherwise DVDPLAYER (the default player) will kick in.

Ok, I created the advancedsettings.xml, selected the DSPlayer (which is the default one now btw.) in XBMC, but it's still far from perfect.

no one ever said it was perfect. infact this dsplayer has only been available for testing for 3 days.

i think tiben20 deserves a pat on the back for attempting this, it's no mean feat!

Of course, I already gave him rep today. I just thought (and read) that there are still some bugs but the movies should run a lot better. I didn't see notable differences so I guessed I did something wrong. Far from any offence to tiben. Smile

well, from your screenshot , it seems it's not using DXVA acceleration in your system, thus the low fps rate.

I guessed so. Maybe I'm missing a codec or something? I installed the Klite Codec Pack (Standard) and the latest nVidia-drivers.

XBMC comes with all the codecs you'll need. Do you have dxva in mpc-hc?
