Honestly, I’d like them to get linux-to-linux streaming working so I can deal with fewer AMD compatibility issues on my steambox.

Nothing under a 600 card will be worth a damn because Nvidia does not do H.264 hardware encoding before the 600 series.

Do you mean the latest generation(5) of PureVideo HD? I thought the only difference was it could support 4K video decoding.

Think we’re talking VDPAU support.

Just to clarify, according to Nvidia

GTX 580 has VDPAU Feature Set C Supports complete acceleration for MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 Part 2 (a.k.a. MPEG-4 ASP), VC-1/WMV9 and H.264.
Global motion compensation and Data Partitioning are not supported for MPEG-4 Part 2.

Geforce 600+ have VDPAU Feature Set D Similar to feature set C but added support for decoding H.264 with a resolution of up to 4032 � 4080 and MPEG-1/MPEG-2 with a resolution of up to 4032 � 4048 pixels.

So “Supports complete acceleration for H.264” is not the same as “decoding H.264”?
