I have never been able to get VIA EPIA hardware to decode 1920x1080 
video. My suggestion is that either you transcode 1920x1080 content to 
MPEG2 720x480 content or you switch to non VIA EPIA frontend hardware 
that can decoded 1920x1080 content.

Personally, I switched to hardware that could decode the 1920x1080 
content. I did this because we have an HDTV capable television. Had I 
not had an HDTV capable television, I would have transcoded the HDTV 
into SDTV resolutions.
