Further to my efforts to get decent TV-out from vdr with softdevice and directfb, here are some more numbers. Mainly because Mark Adams was surprised at the effect his patches had on my CPU usage!
CPU usage: vanilla patcher2k viafb module + vanilla DirectFB ca. 75% vanilla patcher2k viafb module + DirectFB partly patched* with Mark Adams unichrome-directfb.diff posted yesterday: ca. 75% * I removed all of the bits which deal with the field sync stuff, leaving only a hard-coded revision number (0x11: I've checked my chipset by hand and this is correct for me!), and bits to prevent bizarre colours. With full patch to DirectFB _and_ Mark's field-sync patch to viafb, I was getting ca. 25% CPU usage. The improvement must be down to the field-sync stuff. Not worked out which bit yet but I think they work together, i.e viafb will behave 'normally' unless told otherwise (I presume). All done over ssh so I can't see what the picture looks like...
