Hi,
I would hope for good support hdtv decoding video.
Do you have any experience with ATI Radeon X1250? It support HDMI output1080P but I couldn't find any clear feedback with regards toperformance.

Future product generations may be of a more modular design, but there's potentially good news surrounding the open-source UVD on the RV770. Its UVD2 design isn't modular, but AMD's John Bridgman believes there may be a way to open up UVD2 without comprising their DRM obligations. Open-source CrossFire/CrossFireX is also possible, but we'll save talking about that until the open-source developers have got more 3D work tackled
