the.walking.dead.s01e02.720p.hdtv.x264-ctu.mkv 1.09gb

And some 1080p video clips and movie snaps

Yes because the N8 has a Broadcom BCM2727 GPU which support H.264 high profile.
The N8 does not decode video with CPU. Arm and Atom processors are not powerful enough to decode 720p (in general) and above with CPU only.
