Stephan,

For XvMC support you need the standard openChrome driver. Porting XvMC 
to the TTM driver is next on my TODO-list, but I'm also considering the 
new VideoAccelerationAPI Intel has launched. Perhaps a common backend 
for both would be desirable. To dissappoint you a bit more XvMC won't 
work on CX700 due to lack of docs.

Also I'm not sure either driver supports HDMI very well.

3D for CX700 should work with both drivers although the TTM driver 
should be far better overall with support for some CX700 specific features.
