Default Wmv Acceleration

I have installed the last cat's from ati's site, and I have a checkbox that says "Wmv Acceleration". I turn it on and nothing happens (1080 HD movies are choppy as always), but when I turn it on in omega's drivers, the clips are smooooth as butter, but they have "green artifacts".

Do you know what is happening and how can I enable it (working well of course)? I'd really like to watch 1080 HD clips in my ancient pc (xp2200).


Thanks.

Xp2200, 9500 no pro (soft modded), and the official set from ati.com.

The 4.9 Cats don't have that option.

The option isn't ready for prime time , i use a registry key to turn it on and in about 80% of the movies it works fine , my cpu utilization is around 10-15% when watching the highest movies . Only problem is the other 20% has green or pink artifacts like its being uncompressed .

If it is in your control panel it may be a bug thats showing it or you may have left a registry tick box open when switching between ati drivers and third party drivers.
