What sync method are you using? I'm on RTC because the ATrpms build of 0.16 seems to have OpenGL sync turned off and when I rebuilt with it on something chewed so much CPU that playback kept breaking up.
I use the same rpm as you (ATRPMS FC2 0.16), so my bet is RTC. But where
do you configure the type of video sync used. Or is that a build option?
I do not have an OpenGL enabled driver (Xorg Radeon), so I can't use that.
I'm using the Dijkstra MythTV deb packages - 0.16. I assume it has most sync methods compiled in.
It tries each sync type in order until it finds one that works. OpenGL is only included if you specify it at build time however.
I'm guessing the Dijkstra debs don't have OpenGL syncing compiled in as it is not tested (trace below).
If you start the frontend with "-v playback" then the log messages should include something like this when you start watching something:
Thank you very much for this. I get:
2005-01-07 17:30:24 nVidiaVideoSync: Could not open device /dev/nvidia0, No such file or directory
2005-01-07 17:30:24 DRMVideoSync: Could not open device /dev/dri/card0, No such file or directory
2005-01-07 17:30:24 RTCVideoSync: Could not set RTC frequency, Permission denied.
2005-01-07 17:30:24 Using audio as timebase
2005-01-07 17:30:24 Video timing method: USleep with busy wait
The first line makes sense - I don't have an NVIDIA card :). I'm confused as to why RTC is giving permission denied - I'm running my front end as root. I've got things to look at now - Thanks.
Be well,
Will :-}
