I'm wondering if a standard VSA-100 has any kind of hardware video acceleration (e.g. for DVD/VCD)
and i wonder if anyone would tell me if drivers like SFFT has enabled any kind of them..
coz when i play .TS HD videos(which is basically MPEG II with higher bitrate)
the Voodoo 5 5500 seems just don't have enough power for it and the video lags...

I wonder if any Voodoo users need better video playback with Voodoos~~
No way a 3DFX collector...just a 3DFX die Hard Player~~

let the VooDoo Roars!!

No video acceleration through the V5.

In my opinion, the SFFT driver lacks of some 2D acceleration features. I used the standard Microsoft driver some time ... and wondered why Windows felt so "smooth". I can't say it for sure, but I think videos were smoother too.
