Man-wai Chang to The Door (24000bps)

Other than Cyberlink PowerDVD Deluxe and CoreAVC Professional, is there
a free h.264 codec that makes use of Radeon hardware acceleration?

free player that uses dxva acceleration of Radeon and GeForce cards. it has
its own dxva decoder.

The reason why I am looking for a codec because it could be used by
other programs like DVB Viewer (to watch HDTV broadcast). I don't think
mpc-hc could tune to HDTV channels.

I use Arcsoft for HDTV, which was a program freebie included with a (still)
camera I bought, but I'm not sure if it's available as a freeware CODEC.

BTW, you might want to try DVB Dream rather than DVB Viewer.

The last time I tried DVB Dream, it's not ready.

(I did pay for DVBViewer Pro because of its features)

In what way? Like most DVB software, it's not perfect, but I've found it
excellent for HD channels. I mainly use ProgDVB (free version), which again
has always been a bit buggy but on the whole pretty good.

Have you ever tried DVBViewer Pro? You should test it. I like its
networking feature the most, and it use standalone codecs to decode HDTV
signals.

It's not free, so I'm not interested in using it. I used the Technisat
version in the past and it was so clunky I gave up with it instantly. You
can use standalone CODECs and use custom filter configurations with both
ProgDVB and DVB Dream. With the exception of the HTPC Engine features, I
believe it has no extra functionality compared to those two.

I like DVBViewer Pro a lot more..... But then, I haven't seen the latest
version of DVBDream. Later :)
