Was this an error on Apple's side. Was it fixed in 10.5. Why would they
do this? Could this explain

Streaming video is MUCH more CPU intensive than DVD playback. (This was
covered in exhaustive detail on this list a month or so back), so
anything that can be moved to the much-faster GPU really makes a difference.
John,

Interesting. I thought the reason that VLC handles video playback on
older Macs (this is true, right?) was that it offloaded a lot of
video processing to the video card, whereas iTunes/Quicktime did
not. Have I been misinformed?
VLC does NOT use the

To elaborate a bit... DVD-Video is low-compression MPEG-2. Easy
to play, even on a very slow machine. Streamed video is highly
compressed Flash or MPEG-4 H.264. Very CPU intensive to decompress
and decode -- and that's before the GPU
