Sounds like we've gotten off topic with the 24p talk......Has the macroblocking issue been resolved with the most recent nightly builds??

In my post I said, "Now that h/w acceleration appears to be working with the nightlies..."
If you recall, the macroblocking issue was a result of enabling h/w acceleration. I have not confirmed this myself but several users have posted in this thread that using the nightly build instead of the lastest stable release (Dharma) results in proper h/w acceleration hence no macroblocking. So now because it appears that the macroblocking issue is gone we can get back to complaining about the 24p issue.

huzzah, this is working now. I just installed hte newest nightly for windows and the newest intel hd drivers from september and enabled dxva in xbmc and it works awesomely. when I hit o in xbmc while playing something it says it's using ffmpeg-h264-dxva. I have an intel core i3 2100 with hd graphics 2000 in win 7 64 bit

So what is the situation with Sandy Bridge and XBMC? Is it working all fine just with the 24p issue? I am trying to decide what htpc to buy but I keep changing my mind between sandy bridge and the zotac nd22. Plus does it matter whether it is linux or windows?

Do you use sab and sickbeard on the nd22? I am just worrying that the nd22 wont handle playing video at the same time. How do you find library browsing speed between the 2? If I'm honest I would go for the seperates version of the nd22 to allow quieter operation.

Is there any word on proper 24p support with Ivy Bridge?
