Hi All,
Is it only possible get H264 acceleration in OSX ?, Is VC1/MPEG2 something that is being worked on or improved further ?, Or this is somewhat limited by how OSX (Leopard) is built for now ?
All of my movie files are ripped with Makemkv from Blu-ray and played on a 2010 Mac mini. Unfortunately, without acceleration for VC1/MPEG2 movies, some of the more higher bitrate scenes push the CPU to around 120%, and cause quite some jittery playback in spots. The opening panning scene in The Lord Of The Rings - The Two Towers, is an example of this.
XBMC in windows seems to accelerate all the formats perfectly.
thanks!
