My mistake, I was thinking they would be using libass by this point, but it looking at the source they are still using code based on the original FFDshow subtitle filter. Has it improved at all over the years to the point where it's usable?

I also assume that VSfilter being single threaded means that higher clock speed is more important than more core, so long as you have at least two (one for VSfilter, one for decoding the video). If VSfilter does benefit from architecture improvements, I guess that the 2.1ghz i3 in the base model Thinkpad X220 is better than. say, a 2.8ghz Athlon II or Core 2 Duo based desktop. GPU and mass storage capabilities might be a little lacking for my usage though, so the netbook plus cheap desktop combo may still be better for me. Also, this thread really makes me wonder if libass can be used with CCCP, since that would probably render even something like an E-350 adequate. Never heard of libass having the necessary DirectShow support though.

It's been discussed multiple times, but it's nontrivial. I also sorta doubt lachs0r is going to do it; he's the kind of person who despises C++ in general, not to mention the COM+/ATL shit required to write DShow filters in the first place. Additionally, the stuff VSFilter does to insert itself into filter graphs is some serious voodoo even for experienced DShow programmers.

The 2.3Ghz i5-2410M (Turbo Boost to 2.9Ghz) is probably the best value, but considering the the X220 only has a 12.5" 1366x768 screen, maybe not. On a larger laptop, most definitely.
