A prerequisite for the film pleasure is a software player (e.g. media player with decoder), which does all the work with the help of the CPU.
System requirements for videos with 24 frames/second:
- 399 Pentium II or AMD 350 HZ or compatible CPUs of this power class (the more the better)
- Bus mastering enabled, DMA mode automatically activated with Windows 7
- AGP graphics card
Very good software is available from Quadrant International and from CyberLink (Power DVD Player).
