    AMD APU E-350/6310 can't handle 1080p MKV

    Ok first of all thanks for all the help. Second, I solved the problem. When in doubt, cover all ends, so I installed the latest amd driver and that's all it took. It could be that I used to watch 720p and it was fine without HA. Glad it's solved. 1080p 3d worked like a champ with XBMC!! :)

    AMD APU E-350/6310 can't handle 1080p MKV

    Here's info through VLC like you asked. I played it on my gaming/main desktop, which never has a hiccup: Looking into it more, it's half-OU... hmmmm, so I wonder why I'm having an issue. I'm going to try VLC if I get a chance tonight.

    AMD APU E-350/6310 can't handle 1080p MKV

    I'll toy with it hopefully tonight and report back. Thanks for taking the time to respond, bud. Yeah, I thought this APU is powerful also, which is why I was wondering if it could be a hardware acceleration issue... but I thought XBMC takes advantage of that by default. How can I check if...

    AMD APU E-350/6310 can't handle 1080p MKV

    Where can I find that info? I know it's split vertically, so I have a top/bottom picture. So you're thinking a regular 1080p mkv should work fine?

    AMD APU E-350/6310 can't handle 1080p MKV

    I have two Foxconn nettops that I have mounted to two TVs (one is 720p and one is 1080p). I can watch TV with Windows Media Center (I have a Ceton tv tuner) no problem. On my 720p TV, I watch 720p movies with XBMC with no problem. On my 1080p TV, I'm trying to watch a 3D MKV but it's...

    Verizon Data Plan: Pay full retail and keep unlimited plan?

    You're the third person to tell me, but you gave me a more detailed response. Thank you!! Question: 2nd sim card... So I have the phone shipped as the dummy line, bring it to the store, and I tell them it's a customer provided one? They won't question about the sim card being for someone...

    Verizon Data Plan: Pay full retail and keep unlimited plan?

    Through Apple, but it verifies your Verizon account to give the subsidized price. $299 for the 32gig black. I went with apple.com because Verizon was charging an additional $30 for an "upgrade fee"... they are such crooks.

    Verizon Data Plan: Pay full retail and keep unlimited plan?

    Verizon Data Plan: Pay full retail and keep unlimited plan?

    Guys, I don't want to dump Verizon. Their service is the best where I am. I know there are much cheaper options... well, I have thought about it... Not a bad idea... how much can I get a 32gig black for you think (any links)?

    Verizon Data Plan: Pay full retail and keep unlimited plan?

    Thanks for the posts, guys. Right now on 3G I use maybe 350-500MB, but I've a feeling on 4G LTE I'm going to take much more advantage. The real worry is more the future for me. Will I regret this move 2-3 years from now, or will the grandfathering in of the unlimited data plan eventually be...

    HOWTO: Set up Remote Desktop - Updated 3.28.2010

    Just came across this thread by clicking in Leon's signature. I already know how to set this all up and if I may add... I always use a different port than 3389. It's such a simple change, too: In registry, go here... HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\ Now...

    It's VERY annoying actually. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's probably been closer to a yr since the forum update, and SINCE then I've been getting this issue also. The "<" symbol is always before the [ H ] tag. In fact, it does the same thing with IE7 as well as FF. I have to manually edit...

    My gigabyte p35c ds3r is dead for some odd reason. I don't have the time to wait for RMA to process, so I'm gonna just go all out and say that $$ is NOT an issue for me right now. I will buy whatever is BEST. P35 or X38, and if so which one? SLI or CrossFire is probably something I'll...
