Re: [xine-user] DXR2

[Jared K. <jar...@ho...>]

Well my card has an EM8220 chip just as the pic on the link i gave shows.  
So I guess I'll just have to buy a new card if I want hardware decode.  
Thanks for clearing that up.

Pretty sure that those utobia's use the EM8220 chip, even though they
advertise them as Hollywood Plus (EM8300). It is probably a Hollywood 98
card, and thus isn't supported. Easy thing to do is to look at the
chip. The DXR3/Hollywood plus cards will say "EM8300", which is what xine
uses, the DXR2 will say "DXR2", which can also be used in linux, but not
with xine (yet...I know that the DXR2 developers are hoping to make a
plugin...at least thats what they said a month ago). If it says EM8220, I
think your out of luck (someone sold me a utobia card on ebay claiming it
was a Hollywood plus card (EM8300), but it turned out to be the EM8220, so
I made him take it back.)
