I know that the card does not decode divx, but the thing I really want to
know is: does the dix pluggin of VDR allow to watch divx throught the TV
output of DVB card, and does this player is less power hungry than Windows
Media player. Because under windows, my PII 400 is able to show divx
smoothly, but not with Media player...
