[LINUX] bug or missing feature for vdpau deinterlacer for live tv preview window? - chub - 2011-07-05 I experience a problem or missing feature when I view LiveTV in its preview panel/window running xbmc in fullscreen mode. first I cleared the issue by removing ~/.xbmc folder and configure vdr-vnsi-server. to replicate the problem on my system, I have to select a channel, press ok on my remote to make it go full screen and then press M, choose video settings, then enable interlacing (of any kind). Full screen works great for deinterlacer. But as soon as I press the backspace key on keyboard to show the live TV in a preview panel, the output of the preview panel becomes jerky/or described as a lower framerate as compared to what it shows on the live tv in fullscreen mode. Selecting another channel, where deinterlacer is not set, it shows as normal (but I might see the interlaced lines on the screen) in the preview window. I don't see this deinterlacer "problem" when running vdr-sxfe (vdr-xineliboutput's X frontend) in window mode vs fullscreen mode. Some background information. I replaced my VDR with vdr-xineliboutput frontend (which had vdpau support) with xbmc 3 days ago. My system runs X as an ordinary user with no window manager and I launch xbmc-standalone with the following: DISPLAY=:0.0 ck-launch-session xbmc-standalone This is what my Gentoo system has: Code: x11-libs/libvdpau-0.4.1 Code: $ DISPLAY=:0.0 vdpauinfo Code: $ nvclock -i Code: $ uname -a Thanks for a great product so far! - FernetMenta - 2011-07-05 You just might hit system limits when playing a channel minimized. In addition to the movie itself the GUI has to be rendered. I have a GT220. Playing 1080i@50 fullsreen GPU shows approx 60% utilization. When switching to minimized utilization goes up to 100%. This is a problem team XBMC is currently working on. See "dirty regions" on the home page. - chub - 2011-07-06 Thanks for the reply. I managed to enable dirty regions in advancedsettings.xml and it appears to fix the problem I was experiencing. Thanks! |
