One difference in mplayer and myth that you should keep in mind is
that myth does commercial skipping. I've seen this problem in the past
and have theorized that it has something to do with commercial skipping
code. Try completely disabling commercial skipping (detection AND
skipping) and see if it makes any difference.
And just how would an entry in the database indicating the start of a
commercial block cause video artifacts during high motion scenes? Video defect post skip, might indicate that the coimmflagger wasn't
correctly identifying the correct frame to skip too, but the mere
presence of commflag information in the database cannot impact the
quality of your display.
Here's what I did tonight (and why I ask the above). I recompiled the CVS for 0.17 to include XvMC support :
settings.pro :
# XvMC support, modify as necessary. CONFIG += using_xvmc DEFINES += USING_XVMC EXTRA_LIBS += -lXvMCNVIDIA -lXvMC
Next, I did the 'make install' and ran /usr/local/bin/mythfrontend . I went into the Setup -> Setup -> Tv Settings -> Playback
I then turned on deinterlacing, "One Field", turned on Extra audio buffering, NEXT -> NEXT -> NEXT -> NEXT -> turned on 'Use hardware XvMC MPEG Decoding' and finished through the setup. I now get perfect video playback of the 720p HDTV recordings when upconverting to 1280x960 resolution. 1080i recording still worked fine as before. The downside : 99% CPU usage. Soon I'll be testing out the system performace while I'm recording two HD channels AND watching a 720p upconvert .
Hooray, but I'd still like more tweaking in the MythTV Player code. Is it a fork of the mplayer CVS tree ?
