Asus Bravo 220 silent seems to be a passive model. Do you know if these
non-motherboard integrated cards support 7.1ch PCM audio over HDMI?

I got as PM one tip that pointed to this page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_PureVideo#Table_of_PureVideo_.28HD.29_GPUs

I wonder if some smaller number cheaper model with similar VP4/C skills
would do? E.g. Asus EN210 Silent? It could also produce less heat? The
text in Wikipedia is not perfectly in line with the table so I wonder if
GT2xx is needed for best VDPAU support.

It seems that the IONs are VP3/B so your prosal is certainly better (if
there is HDMI audio support).

Fortunately there's google translate - so there's some worry about
passive cooled GT220s? At least the picture of Gigabyte GT220 shows a
pretty large heatsink and fan ;^)

BR,
