Apple Launches Developer Decode Video Decode Acceleration Framework
Yesterday, without fanfare, Apple has posted additions for the Video Decode Acceleration Framework in the ADC download section.
Xcode additions for the Video Decode Acceleration Framework
There is a decoding capabilities for compatible video cards such as the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M / 320M / GT 330M. It is for advanced developers who need hardware accelerated decode of video frames. See TN2267 (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/technotes/tn2010/tn2267.html).
What does this mean for ordinary users?
It's no secret that in Mac OS X there is a very pressing problem - playing HD-content (BD-rips, BD-remux, etc.). With some files, the main players Plex and Movist simply could not cope even on top Macbook Pros - there is not enough “power”. But, if you reboot into Windows, then all this problematic content loses without much difficulty and the maximum processor load of 20% -30%.

Now there is a real hope that developers will take advantage of the hardware decoding capability and this problem will be a thing of the past. You can fully enjoy watching HD video on Mac OS X.
