Aaron,
I think I may have figured it out. I restored last nights backup and started over with the shark007 method. I’ve been able to get both MP4 and VC-1 encoded MKVs to play with HW acceleration so CPU usage is down around 10-20%. I am still having issues with the surround sound, I need to do more tests but it seems that if I rip the MKV with both the HD and regular DTS sound track, the decoder can’t seem to figure out which one to use and outputs 2ch. I’ll let you know what I find. Thanks for the help.
