Hey guys i recently built a htpc with a atom 330 mobo, whilist running win7 I have found streaming hulu and netflix to be ok but no hd really, and skips now and then.
I was wondering how well streaming hulu through xbmc and netlfix while running a distro of linix, I was reading in some google posts that over on the linux side vthe video gets offloaded to the gpu.
So anyone with any experience please shed some light no me googling is just bringing me to the right place.
Basicly I run xbmc as the one thing I'll use to stream in web content. play personel dvd files ,be able to use my blue-ray drive and have the ability to have files sent to the htpc over the network from my gaming rig (which ripps my dvds ion just to slow for it)
