[LINUX] Intel HD GPU rendering?
#1
Question 
Hi everyone,

Although I've been using XBMC for Years now, I'm quite new on this forum. After my old xbox started showing it's shortcomings when rendering HD videos, I upgraded it to a brand new HTPC buikt around the core i3, the integrated IGP and an ASRock H55M-GE mainboard. I want to use Linux, as this saves me the money from the windows license.

Now I've been trying to set it up correctly for a few weeks now, but I've stumbled upon a few problems. This is where I've got so far: I've got Ubuntu maverick, XBMC for lucid from pps. Everything runs fine visually, but looking deeper, I've got some problems:

Firstly when I play a x264 video, it only gets rendered on my CPUs (vcpu usage stays around zero). Is there any way to get XBMC to use my intel HD IGP?

Secondly, as I try to play a 5.1 encoded movie, the only sound I get from my HDMI connection is some high pitch noise. I Can fix it by setting a my 'AC3 compatible receiver' setting to disabled, but then I miss my DTS surround sound. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thank you already for your help!!
