Hi i'm new to Xmbc and have a problem to play full Hd movies it seems the only choice i have is software decoding (my cpu has limited capacities) or pixel shaders both of which don't do the job (=high cpu load) . Perhaps there is a tweak to enable DXVA that i have missed, i have a GT 220 which work great with Dvbviewer or MPC-HC for example.

Thanks for your help

Whats your OS, Version of XBMC, Video Card and CPU
The GT220 supports DXVA2, but not on Windows XP. It requires Vista or Windows 7.
