Hi

I have been reading the Intel whitepaper on video processing hardware accellerators for the Atom processor.
Apparently, on Windows XP, the hardware cannot be used for MPEG4/DIVX video's.
Is this possible in Windows7?
If I want to have good MPEG4 - DIVX-HD playback performance, what should I use : which OS (Linux or Windows7)? which media player?

Thx

That's the void that CyberLink PowerDVD SE is intended to fill.

fit-PC2 XP HD is the recommended setup for video playback.
Windows 7 indeed includes built-in DXVA 2 acceleration, but on a price/experience scale the fit-PC2 XP HD is a better choice.
