</div></div>I don't think it is related to the video chipset. Regardless of the<br>
video chip, Mac OS X is not benefitting much from any sort of<br>
acceleration/offload (as opposed to XvMC or VDPAU on Linux or DxVA on<br>
Windows). In Mac OS X, it's just doing software decoding.<br>
<br>
I have tested HD video on my parents' 2.4GHz 24" iMac with ATI, and it<br>
worked fine. My primary frontend is a CoreDuo 1.66GHz Mac Mini with<br>
Intel Integrated graphics, and it works fine with 1080i HD.<br>
<br>
I would first double check the video decoder settings. The default<br>
settings are decent Linux options, but not good Mac options. On my<br>
mini, I have one entry for all resolutions,<br>
Decoder: Standard<br>
Video Renderer: quartz-blit<br>
OSD Renderer: softblend<br>
