Comment (by markk):

 As noted in 69fefe53e960f3fd8d0f, if you are going to test DXVA2 support,
 please use a debug build and report backtraces if needed. (and please
 don't fill this ticket with trivial me too's etc - I will just lock it
 again)

 So far, I've tested the latest version on 2 Vista installations:-

 - MacBookPro. MPEG2, H.264 and VC1 all work but significant corruption
 when playback starts and following a skip etc. Generally DXVA2 seems
 stable.

 - Core2Duo with EAH4550 ATI card and latest Catalyst drivers. H.264 and
 VC1 seem to play back flawlessly with low single digit CPU usage but crash
 on video exit. MPEG2 crashes (not falling back properly to software
 decode).
