You're right Distro's in themselves can all be tailoured and probably come out with performances which are about on par, but I'm on a dail up connection and am looking for a good starting point.
I have a creative Labs Savage 4 (32MB) Graphics card, which does mpeg decoding in windoze... it might do it in Linux too, but I haven't found out much about it... I'll have a look around on google about that. Cheers.
Yeah, I don't think you'll find much if you look for "creative labs savage 4" but I think it uses the same chipset as the S3 Savage card, so you might look into that. You might wanna give mplayer (command-line multimedia player, has gui too).
Good luck
