About to put together my first home build htpc. Got a Blu-Ray/HD-DVD player and a geforce 8600 gt xxx video card. On the box the vid card says it supports hdcp but i've been reading on the web today that it really doesn't. My question:
If I get Anydvd-HD to bypass my video card non-hdcp status, will it still use Nvidias PureVideo2 to decord the high-def movies I play? In otherwords, will it take the load off of my cpu or just allow the films to be played without the video card doing the majority of the decoding.
(Sorry if the question is basic but the major reason for the video card in an htpc is to actually decode the video so you don't need a huge honkin' cpu).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
