Is that actually working for you?  I've spent months trying to get my
Pundit (same kind) displaying HD, both with the onboard Sis and with a
FX5200 card, and have come close, but not close enough to be useable. 
I was just using the Pundit as a front end, no capturing going on. 
With the onboard Sis (and you're right, there's no XvMC with that), I
didn't have enough CPU for 720p (I'm running 2.8GHz P4).  With XvMC, I
had stuttering or other issues.

I've you have this working, we need to talk.  :)
