First of all, I would like to apologize for my comment on ticket #8260. I just re-read “How to Create a Ticket” at <a href="http://code.mythtv.org/trac/wiki/TicketHowTo">http://code.mythtv.org/trac/wiki/TicketHowTo</a> and this comment should have been directed towards the mailing list. I appreciate the efforts from all of the developers, and did not intend to be a distraction.<br>
<br>I am extremely interested in the Windows development of myth frontend. Our family desktop is running Win7 x64, but is not powerful enough to play HDTV without DXVA2. However, it is equipped with a nVidia GeForce 8400 GS.<br>
<br>I have been following ticket #8260 “Add DXVA2 support” eagerly now for about 7 months and am curious about the status. It seems development on this ticket has halted. I would like to see what I can do to help get this feature integrated into MythTV. I just started dabbling with debugging within Linux, so I don’t think integrating this feature myself is feasible. I could assist in testing and am open to learn from others.<br>
<br>Are there any major issues for why there hasn't been much activity with DXVA2 in MythFrontend? A comment from 8 months ago states “I'll produce a second version after the next ffmpeg sync - upstream ffmpeg has a few fixes/changes and addds mpeg2 support.” Is there a basic task list for what is involved with integrating this feature?<br>
<br>I hope I can help with this ticket and am looking forward to hearing your responses. Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience of my earlier Trac comment.<br><br>-Brian<br><br>
