Nifty Lombard Trick

[Krevnik]

Huh, you think that the MPEG2 component for QT is G4-only, but then I 
managed to playback a ripped DVD on my Lombard 333 in OS X. The 
playback in QT was pretty bad (9-10 fps), but this was on a 333, in OS 
X, with Mail, iChat, PowerPoint running. This makes me think a 
little... if Apple releases specs on the DVD decoder card and decoder 
chip in the Lombard 400, it would be possible to make a component for 
the Lombard to playback MPEG2 through the decoder card, and default to 
the software one when the card isn't present... hmm....
