Hello, :)

Is there a virtualization software that can do Direct X 9 or that can handle it properly in a Windows XP Guest?

I am trying to run a very popular Winblows PVR (as on TV recording) and a Video Editing package that is able to do MPEG2, DVIX and MP4 on a Windows guest but it uses a video overlay is not provided by any of the VM packages I have read about.

All of this VM packages say is very difficult to do and some Open Source software organizations say is possible but I have no information of a piece of code that handles this very important need.

As I am a newbie to Linux and Ubuntu, I will like to save time and get this setup done so I can get to free some of my time and resources to keep on learning Linux.

All help will be appreciated.

Peace to all. :)

As long as you are not trying anything involving 3d you should try virtualbox, and i think you will be able to run whatever you need easily.
