Fun fact: even modern PC's have major difficulties working under similar conditions (read: massive MB 320x200 raw animation replayed with flawless 60hz fps). It's ofcourse the OS of Win/Linux/Mac that bogs down performance and nothing else.
It does? Perhaps 10 years ago... but not now...
Yeah, now it's crappy chipsets that cause the issue of slow full screen rendering. Thank you, Intel.
I had a workstation with the 810 chipset and it could not do full screen video, even with a high-performance PCI video card. And so now I have a notebook with the 915 chipset, and while it CAN do full screen, the chipset and CPU can reach around 160F during the decode and display process.
And these aren't isolated; Intel is KNOWN for making crappy video-integrated chipsets.
