Looks to me thats not the ION version of the EEEBox so VDPAU is going to
be useless to you and its likely it wont have the grunt to playback your
content, I had similar issues with an old 3GHz P4 it didn't have the grunt
to playback HD mkv files, needed some VDPAU cababile hardware yo make this
smooth.
