Hi John, I'm using the Margi DVD-to-Go as a hardware DVD decoder. It pumps the video frames into the Neomagic using the Zoomed Video port without CPU intervention. However, I'm having some BSOD in windows. I have also worked on a linux 2.6 driver which IMHO works relatively OK. In one of these months I want to release a beta version. I also looked at mplayer but it doesn't use the margi which does all the hard decoding work in hardware...
