Haggy - just remove the 'if' statements.

??
If I understand correctly, mpeg2 in XBMC doesn't use vdpau which means I can't take advantage of vdpau's post processing filters when viewing mpeg2 files like DVDs.

Nah i got it right...my patch was missing the GUISettings lines. I cannot remove the if-statements because this is for the ArchLinux AUR package. Not everyone has a 8xxx and thus needs the patch enabled.

Ah - didn't realize you weren't just doing it for yourself. Glad you got it working.

I disabled cpu throttling and also installed nvidia latest stable drivers: 185.18.14
Tonight I'll test the results to see if my Nvidia ION box is stable with MKV files.

Hannes The Hun Wrote:also, the CPU load stays way under 10% when the stuttering happens. VDPAU works very well with the Ion, it's just this damn stuttering/buffering that drives me mad
I also have stuttering when playing with VDPAU in my Zotac ION.
I also set 512MB for the GPU in the BIOS.
I use the unique NVIDIA driver that says it support ION (185.18.14).
All throttling or frequency changing services that are in Ubuntu 9.04 I have previously removed for this testings.
With XBMC 9.04 I use 10% of each HT-CPU (so 20%).
With XBMC 9.04.1, XBMC use 100% CPU but only the 20% is intended to be used as decoding.
I suppose this is a bug and i switched back to 9.04.

sorry that I haven't read all 1157 posts and probably this question has already been asked, but why haven't you implemented VA API instead of VDPAU? VA API would have ensured that once ATI/AMD is ready XBMC would also support hardware acceleration on ATI/AMD hardware on linux systems.
I don't mean to offend someone - I'm just curious as I stubmled over VA API while I was searching what VDPAU is exactly.

Hmm, let me guess what AlTheKiller would say? "Patches welcome"
- motd2k - 2009-06-03 20:39
VDPAU support was in ffmpeg before VAAPI, and to be honest just because an API provides an interface in an abstract manner doesn't always mean its better. (although to be fair i haven't looked at VAAPI in such great depth)
