<p class="MsoNormal">Discussions lately around these 2 GPUs and
deinterlacing have lead me to believe that the GT220 is superior to the
GT210
in that it will support the Advanced 2x deinterlacer. However, all of
NVidia’s
documentation seems to indicate that these 2 chipsets support the same
VDPAU feature
set, namely feature set “C” (see links below). Wikipedia says
the same thing regarding VDPAU and Pure Video HD, and if it’s on
Wikipedia
it must be true, right? ;-)<o:p></o:p></p>

As has been indicated several hundred times before on the mailing list,
the IRC channel, and elsewhere on the internet, the decoders run in
dedicated hardware, while the deinterlacers run on the shaders. They
all have the same decode feature set, but the low end cards just don't
have the performance for the most intensive deinterlace filters.<br>
