Hello guys,

Does anyone have any experience playing back full 3d bluray on an AMD E450 machine?

I find that it is very choppy and stutters like crazy. Is the E450 powerful enough for this

thanks

What OS are you using, how much memory, are you playing the content locally or over the network, does everything else play okay?

Well i have got Windows 7 on my machine with 4GB RAM.. everything else plays perfectly with no stutter. I am using TMT5 and PowerDVD 12

The content is on a external USB drive

Necrobump!

I have an Acer Revo RL70 (E450 based) running Win7 with 4GB RAM and SSD and I concur with the OP.

It can take any content except 3D Blu Ray.

In my case I'm streaming the content from a WHS2011 machine, but I don't believe the stutter is network related.

I put one of the MiniPCIe slots on the Revo to good use with an Intel 82574L based NIC, the server has an Intel i350-T2 NIC using LACP and the switch is a rather capable D-Link DGS-1210-10P.

In summary, I don't believe the E450 is suitable for this application. I'm moving to an A6 or A8 based HTPC and flogging the Revo... Shame really, it's a very capable and quiet little thing...

I just got one recently myself. I will test it out next week and share my thoughts.

You don't have to thank me, I love computer hardware and I have been looking forward to testing the E450. Just please be patient with me as I am now thinking I want to test in both OSes.

I have the rl70 myself - the one with the bluray drive onboard, although the rest of the hardware is the same. Out of the box the revo wouldn't play bluray. An error came up about not having aacs library. I installed powerdvd 12, five minutes later I was playing a bluray disc
