High definition playback of x264 files did not work right out of box but to tell you the truth I didnt expect it to.
installing codecs was only few clicks away and took only about 2 minutes to download and install them for the default media player.
since I can never leave anything alone I went ahead and downloaded VLC media player to see if it has better capabilities. the player came with all needed codecs just as I expected.
after playing few different movies I noticed huge difference in playback quality compared to watching same videos on Windows.
the picture was clear and sharp and the PC no longer had hick ups that I experienced under Windows.
I only found one problem so far. sometimes I have gotten errors when trying to play files that had DTS audio track instead of AC3 but im not sure why,ill just figure it out when or if I get the error a againg.
