You should demonstrate that your xorg.conf is referencing the appropriate ATi driver. Stroller. Thank you for your reply. I'm not sure how to demonstrate other that pasting the relevant section xorg log: (II) LoadModule: fglrx (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers//fglrx_drv.so (II) Module fglrx: vendor=FireGL - ATI Technologies Inc. compiled for 7.1.0, module version = 8.43.2 Module class: X.Org Video Driver Is this sufficient?

Keeping the video smaller in a window produces much better results. As you might expect, the larger the video picture, the worse the jumpiness gets. Results are the same with both Totem and VLC.

Is this the best I can expect for this video hardware? I can post my xorg.conf if there's a possibility that some tweak will improve performance. Hi! I have this problem but i have another ATI inegrated card (01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M]) The solution is the next: - use fglrx (you have to test the 3D rendering with fgl_fglxgears command) - use mplayer with -vo gl or -vo gl2 option (the gl and gl2 is opengl video output) I have fglrx and verified it works. I have not tried mplayer. Does mplayer work better than other players? I hope i can help you. András ps.: sorry my english :) Your English is good. Thanks, Drew -- Be a Great Magician!

Look the man page (i think this is really big) and you will see the options.
