|  HD Video on ATI
Hello my friends. I have a HD 3850 PCI-e x16 graphic card. It supports HD video playback. But I don't know how. Which program I should use to play HD video without using CPU? |

Should be automatic, but you can make sure by snooping around your media player/decoder settings. | |

I tried a video clip (which is 1920*1080) but it uses CPU, not GPU. I think this means it's not automatic... 
I'll try VLC Player tomorrow. But what about PowerDVD? Does it use GPU? | |

PowerDVD supports GPU decoding but make sure to set it up inside the options. | |

It worked with a Blu ray, but I didn't try the other things you mentioned so I don'T know too much about that.
