Yes, at least Mandriva cooker release of fglrx suggest only for testing 
the XvMC with mpeg2.

 http://lists.mandriva.com/cooker/2008-11/msg00022.php

I have not yet tried to update my machine to latest cooker to see 
whether it could work with 780G/HD3200.

As faar, as I have understood it, full acceleration for H264/VC-1 is not
working right now. Mplayer/Xine and/or ffmpeg needs to be rewritten to be
able to use XvBA.

What is working is XvMC with XvBA. But you will only get MPEG2
acceleration with it.

I see no mention on the mplayer mailing list about AMDXvBA. Are there  
actual users that can confirm that (insert codec X here) playback is  
indeed fully accelerated with these cards?
