No, it doesnt.

But then you could always use CoreAVC as a software decoder.

If your CPU is good enough then you can just use software decoding.

Do you game? If not pick up a cheapo HD2400 or whatever they are now for around £25, it'll be perfect for Blu-Ray playback.

My 3000+ @ 3700+ speeds couldn't do some 1920x1080 media.
