    How can I test the AMD Video Aceleration? Got a 4850 on a 22" LCD via HDMI and a 40" LCD via DVI. I tested a few short clips with 1080p content and didn't see my CPU getting any extra work (or at least anything noticeable). I use gstreamer with OpenGL output.

    CPU is a Phenom X3 @ 2200.

    Well interesting that you have got wrong colors with pure bluray h264 material then.

    UVD only implements what may be found on Blu-ray discs. There is none with Windows Media Video 9 (WMV3) codec. VC-1 is generally understood as VC-1 Advanced profile though Simple and Main profiles are a copy from the older WMV3 specs.

    Nice find, does not work with vaapi/xvba with a 3450 (did not test 4550). Maybe because it is not pure vc1, when you test with nvidia (pure svn) you see:

    Selected video codec: [ffwmv3vdpau] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg WMV3/WMV9 (VDPAU))

    files working with vaapi/xvba use:

    Selected video codec: [ffvc1vdpau] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg WVC1 (VDPAU))

    It works with vaapi/nvidia btw.

    When you compare vainfo:

    Nvidia:

    VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileMPEG4Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileMPEG4AdvancedSimple : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileVC1Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileVC1Main : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD

    ATI:

    VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointIDCT
    VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointIDCT
    VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD
    VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD

    Did you try with high resolution wmv files such as this one?

    Well on my systems generic divx/xvid files need 3-5% cpu usage even without accelleration, but some may have got slower systems like atom. There something like ion2 could have got vp4, but currently it does not work correctly.

    i only know that

    mplayer -vo vdpau -vc ffodivxvdpau movie

    uses full hw accelleration and that really looks ugly with my testfiles.

    I do it with quitting xbmc and within 60 seconds looking at system monitor cpu history. Any better method to test it?

    who can confirm that it is fully hw accellerated with xbmc? you can use software codecs too with vdpau output with mplayer.
