Beyond3D has posted an Avivo Winter update article
In the initial part of the Avivo article we took a look at an overview of many of the technologies that ATI's video and display engine technology encompasses. While that brought us some familiarity with what was available with Avivo, much the the capabilities had not yet been seen on the new X100 series of boards after their initial release.
Although ATI, over recent years, have adopted a monthly official driver release schedule, at the end of 2005 ATI released an extra set of drivers, Catalyst 5.13, specifically with updates for Avivo on the X1000 series of graphics boards. These drivers were specifically design to enable some more of the Avivo functionality, demonstrating ATI's video transcoding capabilities, enabling hardware assisted H.264 decoding and, possibly the most important element, the promise of higher quality video playback.
