ASUS N10J 1080P H264 x264 Intel Atom DXVA GPU Offload

This is video of an ASUS N10J-A1 playing back a 1080P H264/x264 MKV, stutter & jitter free due to the fact that the H264 1080P stream is being fully offloaded to the on-board discrete nVidia GeForce 9300M GS which has full PureVideo HD support.

Required items:

* Microsoft Vista for EVR (Enhanced Video Renderer) support.
* PowerDVD 8 DirectShow filter for H264/AVC codec.
* MPC-HC (Media Player Classic - Home Cinema).
* Custom EVR external DirectShow graph to load the PowerDVD 8 H264/AVC codec.
* MKV Haali Media Splitter.

Video also demonstrates that I can still perform simple tasks while the video is playing. Also, but not shown, you can activate the HDMI port on the ASUS N10J and hook it up to an external device (e.g. HDTV LCD set or an AVR) with HDMI audio passthrough (AC3/DTS) and watch a movie on the external HDMI display and still do normal computing tasks in Vista on the 10.2" 1024x600 screen.

Have you tried play 1080p with VC1 codec using DXVA?

[Eemrek]

Yes. VC1 is supported by the 9300M GS. I tested it with an M2TS Blu-Ray rip of "Blue Planet" (1990) and VC1 is fully offloaded to the nVidia GPU via DXVA.

Question, can I connect this to an external monitor through HDMI and get 1080p. but with default settings and codecs (using VLC player) on vista... also is this possible on XP... PLZ answer anyone.

[Eemrek]

Yes. 1920x1080P is supported on the 9300M GS's HDMI port, along with digital audio passthrough.

thats irrelevant, its 1080p video, high fucking quality, no matter what the monitor is

[Eric858]

NO WAY!! My asus has that potential? oh but you have 2gb ram don't you... hmm i got the worst version- asus n10jc which has 1gb ram, 160gb hardrive, and windows xp. if i get vista and do some upgrading... i can have...... what's shown in the video ?!!! well i wanna get windows 7 instead though :( hmmm any advice or crucial info for me before i do all this upgrading?

Have u played 12100P?

[PimYuTub]

DOes it still run smoothly without hardware accerleration (eg when you play using vlc?).

[unitim]

Use VMR9 (renderless) ** for XP with MCP HC original codecs. You don't even need PDVD. Plays 1080p with 30% CPU load

wait for 3.5 months for windows 7 =D

[klesk85]

hi, thanks for ur recommendation, my N10J can play HD video with the klite mega codec! But not really dat smooth, tell u a good news, i made some research & found that KMPlayer actually has got nPure HD support, & this one really plays HD smooth on my n10j, thx anyway ;D

[klesk85]

hmmm...but i heard there was problem of slow starting & shutting down of vista on N10J, that the manufacturer decided to swap vista biz for xp home, like mine...anyway, thx Gabrio ;)

[Gabrio81]

actually if you use windows vista, it works much better.. for XP, you gotta use the nvidia AND the windows media player classic w/ klite mega codec pack installed, that way im able to play them, NOT with windows media player since tha tone uses massively the CPU and the atom is not enough.

[klesk85]

yea, my N10J with XP Home is unable to play HD video as well...i thought this video demo was fake ;P

[Gabrio81]

hello

i have just reformatted my n10j with xp pro, everything runs perfect but HD video playback since it does not play smooth.

by the way before reformatting it and installing xp, i had VISTA business installed on and i tested hd playback there, no problem.

is it a XP issue that does not enable something?? video im trying it's a true hd i have personally encoded from my hd video cam, and plays perfectly on same setup and my studio quad core computer.

already updated drivers. ideas?
