GMA 500 Linux Video Accel?

Post by JTP »

Hey!
I have heard a bit about the Jogglers video accel and that it has limited support under Linux. Is this true? If so how limited? Is it able to play videos properly without tearing on Linux? If not under Linux what about Windows?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I am doing OK with the Joggler running XBMC and streaming video.

I also installed a tiny XBMC build (one posted here) on the 2GB MMC card on the Openframe II device.

On the XP side I have Jogglers and Openframe 2 boxes running XP and doing an HD video screensaver and they are doing fine.
