If you have linux and your card supports xv or vidix you definitly don't
need
it. Anyway it isn't worth the effort to install windows...

Time is over ;)
No really, it mostly depends on graphics card. For me it is faster
because I can use hardware scaling and colorspace conversion
capabilities of my card which aren't supported by linux driver.
But for 90% of cards this  is supported on linux, too.
Anyway the windows port isn't ready to use, yet. Just experimental
