I would consider the SP13000 as it has Mpeg4 accelerator as well as a<br>Mpeg2 decoder (see the "Comparing the EPIA SP and the EPIA M" section of<br><a href="http://www.mini-itx.com/store/?c=444#p1628">http://www.mini-itx.com/store/?c=444#p1628
</a> for details.) it also has<br>SATA which might be of interest if you ever re-deploy the card for other<br>use etc.<br>I would not expect any available Epia card to handle h264 video.<br><br>If you consider any other Epia card than your intended MII12000 I must
<br>advice you to read about the chipset support closely, the CN400 in the<br>SP13000 is fairly well supported and is capable of quite high<br>resolutions (but does not necessarily have the CPU perf to use it)<br>whereas CN700 has limited linux support and some other limitations.
