I am using an Atom Board with an additional mini PCI-E hardware decoder. This is a very handy solution, as it decodes any video format up to 50 Mbit and it allows me to build a media center that has no fans and consumes less than 10 Watts but actually can do everything I want. The only thing at the moment is that MC does not allow me to select the decoder filter, I assume that you probably would have to whitelist it. This is the filter information:
DisplayName @device:sw:{083863F1-70DE-11D0-BD40-00A0C911CE86}\{2DE1D17E-46B1-42A8-9AEC-E20E80D9B1A9}
Type Standard
CLSID {2DE1D17E-46B1-42A8-9AEC-E20E80D9B1A9}
ObjectName Broadcom Video Decoder
FileName bcmDFilter.dll
I would be very happy if you could include support of this adapter in future versions.
Muchas gracias
