ok downloaded a rar file from a h.264 encoded movie . Played in it power dvd 7 full screen with clev 2 off (whatever that is Pdvd said I should) and it played fine using 29% cpu

elephants dream in 1024 H.264 MOV is always a challenge to get to 25fps even though its quicktime player compatable (i.e not useing any/all the advanced h.264 encoder options)and so is not stressing the cpu under software decoding anywere near the same as the BBC HD MBAFF AVC/H.264 encodes, i cant seem to find a link for readers at the moment for those bbc clips.
heres a link to the free Elephants Dream mpeg4-AVC /h.264 HD 1024 and the 1920 mpeg4-divX/Xvid content.

i guess the reason they dont supply a generic 1920 AVC/H.264 encode is most people cant play that size on their PC hardware.

the only viable windows software AVC decoder (without hardware assistance) seems to be CoreAVC, thats commercial and tied to youre windows install so you cant install it on more than one machine per copy.... but still its good for what it does.

for the likes of zing with lots of windows tech time , take a look at the slax live cd.
get any slax live cd (thats the basic thing myslax workes with), a copy of the myslax that installs on windows and allows you to compile your very own linux livecd with any of the pre-made slax modules you download.
dead easy for getting just the apps you want and put it all together inside windows....
theres still the fact you may have to mess with some scripts and edit stuff by hand but thats a given if the defaults dont work for your hardware ,but still the best compromise iv found so far.
zing, give the freeNAS livecd a go for a
VERY quick way to get a network storage up and running, quicker than i can drive image a windows backout to a new drive LOL.
