    The MediaSDK VC-1 decoder is DXVA2 only on Intel GPUs (tested with an i5 and i3), on other GPUs it’s SW only (~15% on my Q6600 + ATI3650). 

    Now that Sage has there own MKV splitter I’ve been using the ArcSoft TMT2 Video Decoder instead, so I haven’t messed w/ the Intel one for a while.

    So, I should be getting hardware acceleration on my i3-540 in MPC HC with EVR, correct?  It doesn’t appear that is happening.  Is there something else I need to set?  I’m using the Haali’s MKV splitter.  I’m a little in the dark on what it takes to make DXVA2 work.  Does it require Media Foundation? 

    I’m willing to read if you have a good post.  Most of the stuff I’m seen on DXVA2 is pretty muddy.  I’m pretty sure that DXVA2 requires EVR.  I’m not sure if it require Media Foundation.
