I just upgraded my G400 MAX to a Parhelia, and one thing I really like about this card is the DVD quality (finally, on BOTH HEADS!!!). The difference is really noticable; the hardware motion compensation makes a big difference. Now if they can only find a way to span the DVD movie across BOTH HEADS!!! (hopefully you're reading this HAIG!!!)

If you are in a stretched desktop (rather than independant), and turn off video overlay in the video playback setting, it will display on multiple screens (using sofware blit rather than hardware overlay).Core2 Duo E7500 2.93, Asus P5Q Pro Turbo, 4gig 1066 DDR2, 1gig Asus ENGTS250, SB X-Fi Gamer ,WD Caviar Black 1tb, Plextor PX-880SA, Dual Samsung 2494s -
Have you tried TV-out DVD playback (DVDMAX) via S-VHS with the Parhelia ?
I have a G400 with RGB connection to TV. I want to upgrade but I wonder if Parhelia gives a noticeable improvement in TV-out picture quality compared to G400.A64 3500+ NewCastle @2550 (FSB 255, 10X)
