I don't have problems with codec performance in ubuntu 10.04. I would
try playing the videos with mplayer, totem and/or vlc to see if the
performance problem is a codec one. Also do you have a graphics driver
with 3D hardware acceleration? if you type
glxinfo | grep direct
is direct rending a Yes or a no?
(if you don't have glxinfo installed, it's in mesa-utils i.e. sudo
apt-get install mesa-utils)

Hi,
I'm trying to play some mpeg4 and h.264-encoded video files with
pix_film in Ubuntu 10.04, and it is terribly slow: it reads about 4-5
frames per second and eat 100% of the CPU.
The files have aproximately 900x500 resolution, which is nothing
exagerate; and even Adobe Flash Player can reproduce the same files
seamlessly at their full (25fps) rate without consuming more than
about 40-50% of the CPU.
Any idea of what the issue can be? Is it the codecs? I guess I have
whatever codecs came with the Ubuntu distro. Are there any codecs with
better performance that I should insall?
Or is this the best performance I can expect under linux?
Thanks
