I just picked up an ATV1, (I needed the component out), and wanted to upgrade the video to 1080p.
A BCM70012 is about £10 delivered, and a BCM70015 is about £35 delivered.
I know that the BCM70015 can do hardware Divx, and flash 10.1.
Can both codecs be played just as well in software?
If software playback is acceptable, what (if any) other benefits are there?
(i.e reduced power, less heat, etc).
Should I bother paying the extra money, or can I just get by with the cheaper card?
Thanks
