Playing HD Content on AMD-based Machines

We've analyzed video playback in modern high-quality resource-intensive formats several times already. Unfortunately, it's usually difficult to apply test results to your own computer, because there's multitude of HD video formats and we might just miss the formats you are interested in. So we decided to conduct several additional tests in order to evaluate real hardware requirements for playing HD video on modern media, such as Blu-ray and HD DVD. These tests, in our opinion, may be interesting and useful to those building rigs with extra capacity for the future needs.
