Uniserver: the video card is an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 with 64 MB of VRAM (this is the Titanium PowerBook I've been working on).
ClassicHasClass: For now, I am using VLC to play back stuff, although I am willing to switch to something else if "something else" is less taxing on the processor. If I can find a program/format combination which can run without choppiness at the reduced processor setting, that would be ideal.
To my surprise, MKV files seem to actually work quite well, although only at full processor speed, and it taxes the CPU even at that.
Given the computer's heat related issues (as mentioned here), I don't think it's ideal to run such taxing stuff on it (it works just fine with a light load, with hardly any crashing).
