    Hello,

    My wifes got a lnotebook from her company.
    We also got avchd camcorder (hf200).

    Laptop is HP with GeForce8400gs and Vista 32bit It is supossed to support hardware AVCHD video decoding. but... we have some problems.

    We found only one free player - Splash - that works almost ok on this graphics card, video is almost perfectly smooth (with high bitrate full hd avchd videos). Splash works very well on my notebook (acer with intel gs45 chipset).

    Arcsoft total theatre trial works a little worse. But its a trial and not free.

    I cant get any other free players to use dxva.
    MPCHC doesnt work.

    Do you know any other (prefered free, but can be commercial) players that work with this video card?
