Does the Geforce FX series support iDCT?

Anyone know if any of the new Geforce FX cards support iDCT? I can't specs anywhere that mention iDCT. The Geforce4 MX supported it but not the Geforce 4 Ti series.

I asked this a while ago- it probably does, we're just not sure yet.

I know the FX Go chips support it, and they claim full MPEG-2 support for normal FX, so it looks good.

Cool. Its strange that this has never been mentioned in any of the reviews out there.

The Geforce FX 5200 (regular) is very appealing to me because of its fanless design. I need to upgrade my HTPC and if this thing supports iDCT, it would work well with the DVICO FusionHDTV card (I think).

Thanks.
