Ok, I've read a lot of threads about hardware acceleration, but can't find a definitive answer...
I have XBMC (Dharma beta 3) on an Acer Revo 1600 running windows XP. This has the Nividia ION chipset.
1. Does XBMC support DXVA for h264 encoded .mkv files with my set up? If so, is there anything i need to do to enable it? Currently, the videos are not being accelerated in XBMC.
2. If not, what are my options? I know about the dsplayer branch, but the last stable build was back in August. Has this branch ended? MPC-HC plays these files beautifully, but I'd prefer not to use an external player because XBMC's interface is sooo much nicer, and I am having trouble getting pgs subtitles working (they work natively in XBMC).
