[Openchrome-users] HDTV question

[Emmanuel]

	Hi all,
as I will eventually settle for a motherboard to build an HTPC I would  
like to clarify something.
I want to have a very quiet and power friendly frontend to put in my  
living room, my idea was an epia and as I want to build something for a  
while I wanted the sp13000 as it is able to decode mpeg2 hdtv (though I  
want to use MythTV and the success report is about mplayer). Anyway my  
question is: is it a good idea to do that? Indeed will HD content (OTA  
or DVD's whatever format will remain) be encoded in mpeg2 mainly or  
mpeg4 (well h264 or whatever). If the latter I guess that I should find  
a more powerfull processor to go with Unichrome Pro GFX Card.
BTW what part of mpeg4 decoding is done in hardware by this chip?
Thanks for any answer/pointer.
Bye
Manu
