Note that the homepage is very slightly ambiguous: The relevant entry has nothing to do with Atom (the CPU), but with Poulsbo (an Intel chipset that is often used with Atom CPU's). The entry basically claims you can use hardware acceleration on Poulsbo driven hardware on Linux with MPlayer (but depends on the definition of "utilize" and "MPlayer"). AFAIK, you may also have an Nvidia ION chipset with your Atom CPU which actually supports hardware accelerated decoding with MPlayer svn since about one year (on Linux, Solaris and some BSD). > How can I make use of the decoder in wwindows? I've heard rumours that vlc does support it (for both Poulsbo and ION). That was their main attraction on FOSDEM... Carl Eugen
