which coded is Gem using to decode the mov? if it is quicktime4linux, then the results for _decoding_ should not differ so much. apart from the fact that Gem uses openGL to display the video, which is portentially slower than xv-overlay...could you test to only decode the videos with [pix_film], without any [pix_texture] and compare these? and put your video-files online so other people can participate in the review? fmar IOhannes _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
