Massive screen tearing
#1
Hello there, I'm experiencing lots of screen tearing when I check on: Use fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen.
True fullscreen is fine.

I've tried searching the forums for a bit but can't find a real solution, like some guy said that 'blank other displays' works, but no I still have it on videos.

Does someone know how I can get it to work properly?

I have enabled vsync, adjust refresh ratio to match video and all turned on, but it only works in fullscreen not in fullscreen windows.Huh

The fullscreen window mode isn't as fast as true fullscreen, and it sounds as if your system just isn't fast enough.

Are you using Windows 7? Make sure Aero is enabled.

Enabling aero got rid of the problem, but when playing heavy blu rays like planet earth the videos are now just studdering. While my CPU (phenom II 965) is just being used for about 10 percent. My gpu (5770) for zero percent and just 1.5 of 4 gigs of ram used?

Amazingly the videos play totally smooth when my mouse is on the xbmc window, on my hd tv instead of my desktop on windows.
