Kevin, Am I correct when I say that this plug-in supports hardware decoding of mpeg2 and vob files? It seems that others are trying to use this to plugin to playback files other than mpeg2 (xvid, divx, etc.). These other file types can only be played back through the osd for now, correct? Once YUV decoding is stablized we will be able to take advantage of that to pipe other video formats, once converted to YUV, through the PVR-350 without having to use the osd.
Thanks for all your hard work on the plugin as well as driver development. Also, thanks to Chris and others for their hard work on the driver as well. All of your efforts are greatly appreciated.
