I have a htpc with a gigabyte GA-MA78GM-DS2H motherboard, which has AMD 780G chipset integrated ATI Radeon™ HD 3200-based graphics .
I installed win7 32b enterprise and XBMC (Camelot). Do I need anything else ?
for instance for hardware decoding etc, I've read xbmc installs all necessary codecs, but on the other hand I've read postings from people who use ffdshow for instance. If xbmc has everything, why install ffdshow ?
And I've read win7 has a special API for hardware decoding video that xbmc uses or is that just with the intel chipset ?
(PS. I did use the search, but couldn't find an answer)
