What are the relative merits of using Textured Video vs Video Overlay? 
Does the former leverage the hardware better?

To my eye on HD mpg's they look about the same. Video Overlay uses a bit 
less CPU, and currently implements the xv color adjustments.

Are the pixel shaders for Textured Video on any of the developers plates?
