[edit] the whole term for AVIVO?

We know "VIVO" stands for Video in Video out", but what about AVIVO? What is the A means? ATI? or "advanced"? --202.40.137.202 05:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

This makes no sense: Early versions of this software does not have hardware encoding, but has been locked for exclusive use with ATI X1000 series of GPUs. Also, the footnotes (ref tags) don't show up. I can't tell what's wrong. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.162.18.163 (talk) 05:43, August 22, 2007 (UTC)

I fixed it up: it means that earlier versions were locked into the X1000 series for no hardware reason, and thus it can be run with other graphics cards. goffrie 23:08, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I take this to mean that the current version does provide hardware acceleration. I haven't been able to confirm that anywhere. Do you have a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.162.0.43 (talk) 20:23, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
