I'd concur with the 512MB for TV3 / 1080.<br>
<br>
I am now running 180.29 and Jean-Yves patches using a QX6800 &
9400GT 512MB, non VDPAU gives 80% on one of the cores, with VDPAU this
drops to well under 10% (I let it use up to 2 cores leaving me 2 cores
for everything else).<br>
<br>
I can record 4 streams of freeview HD using a Hauppauge Nova T 500
while watching one of the streams, and I am also running the commerial
flagging on the recordings as well as the Advanced 2x HW de-interlacer.<br>
<br>
The frontend still occasionally crashes so no yet ready to risk WAF...<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

Next up is to try the slightly newer 180.29 driver, and find a card with
better VRAM to test TV3.
Overall - good, but not WAF ready.

You should definitely try 180.29 as well as the new mplayer set of
patches ; the calculation of the maximum number of reference frames is
now far better...
I'm yet to find a H264 videos not playing with them... But as you
wrote, that you only have 128MB of video RAM is going to be a problem
in your case..
Did you give a try to mythtv ?
