Austin - your best bet for GPU (graphics card) accelerated playback is probably NVIDIA's proprietary binary (closed source) driver and it's VDPAU (Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix) feature. A close second would be Intel's VAAPI if you have a recent Intel GPU/APU. VLC and MPlayer both support VDPAU. Last I heard, VLC supported VAAPI but the mainline MPlayer lacked VA-API support (there's a separate branch / patches with the support). ATI's XvBA currently only supports up to H264@High Level 4.1 (e.g. Bluray) - it does not currently support H264@High Levels 5.0 and 5.1 - see http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTEyNzA
