From the post:

Alpha 1 Release notes:

We finally have hardware video decode working largely thanks to some help from yjwong. This release is primarily just to get hardware decoding out for folks to enjoy while other work continues. This build does not work with Netflix yet. However, hardware accelerated video decoding does work for Youtube HD and playback of local media. This build still uses the 2.6.35 kernel. The 3.0 kernel is still being heavily worked on and is also the primary focus for development. Don't expect hardware video decoding to be perfect yet. Its half a miracle it works at all on our current kernel.

Similar to the last build I will provide flashable zips to make it easier to switch to lcd density 120 with proper launcher layout. The hardware video decoding will not make it into the nightlies for a few days. There is still some work to do in order to get it merged into repositories and ensure it doesn't break other devices.

• Hardware video decoding support. As a result, Youtube HD and 720p and 1080p local media will now be playable. Netflix does not work yet.
  
• Includes touchscreen improvements by Dees_Troy
  
• Now able to enable use of 2D companion core to offload composition

As always, Kudos to everyone who helped. On behalf of CM9 users, I humbly request to make progress on making Wifi connectivity stable/good, so irrespective of location, one can easily get wifi connected to have internet access.

OK, it looks like I'm having an ice cream sandwich this afternoon, this is awesome, I can deal without netflix for a while.  Thanks for the amazing work, and it's coming along really fast too, no matter how impatient everyone is

For those of you who had blocky video like in CM7 again, change debug.composition.type=c2d to debug.composition.type=gpu in the build.prop.

Netflix doesn't work, but Crackle does. That should suffice for me for now.

Anyone else getting FC's with the Stock browser?

Youtube worked fine on HD last night. So that's great, but now i am having audio issues, i've rebooted the device a few times yet there is still no audio output through headphone jack.

Gallery also stops responding with various different market actions (install, uninstall)

**EDIT** I've rebooted, uninstalled winamp and turned on the audio is working again. No idea which of these steps, or all helped, or maybe it was a co-incidence.

Thanks again cyanogenmod for all your hard work.  CM9 - alpha 1 yet again vast improvements and much enjoyment had with an otherwise somewhat lame web os.
