Hello Jimmy,
At the moment I only have the SR 2, not the 2FS.
The CPU is a AMD Alchemy 1550, 500 MHz.
I think Sun chose this one for its ipsec and ssl hardware acceleration
not for mpeg decoding.
The graphic chip is a ATI es 1000.
I believe this chip has no DVD hardware decode options:
See: http://www.ati.com/products/embedded/overview.html
This is really to bad because the ATI Radion 7000 in the Sunray 1G does
have DVD hardware decode acceleration.
Sun could have used this already to improve on video support.
It rather amazes me that this was not done earlier because there is a
lot of demand for training videos support on sunrays in education and
business settings.
I am now hoping the 2 FS still has the ATI Radion 7000.

What CPU is in the 2/2FS? Would it be powerful enough to decode the MPEG?
