Video card

Post by spotslayer » Thu Jan 07, 2010 8:13 pm

I am looking for a video card that will run VDPAU for a new mythbox I am putting together. Pat has recommended this one, but I believe it is obsolete.

"My Nvidia 8600GT card (< $50) does VDPAU perfectly"

I have looked at this link as well as the wiki and have gotten myself confused.

I have seen the GT 220 but it is a little pricy.

Can someone recommend a current nvidia video card that will use VDPAU and won't break the bank?

Any graphic card greater than 8000 series should work:

One example, there are many others. Don't spend more than $70. Check out the mythtvuser mailing list for more examples. The topic comes up every so often.
